Pre-Owned Heuer Pasadena – Ref. 750.501 (1980s)
Factory PVD • Valjoux 7750 • Rare Vintage Heuer
Stock Code: ZC1IZX
Store Location: GA Jewellers, Brighton Lanes
The Heuer Pasadena 750.501 is a highly collectible piece from the late pre-TAG Heuer era, produced during the early 1980s as part of the brand’s push into bold, purpose-built tool chronographs. With its factory-applied matte black PVD coating, the Pasadena stands out today as one of the most distinctive vintage Heuer models — and one of the very first watches to experiment with full-case PVD finishing.
This reference features the clean, functional black dial with luminous baton hour markers and the classic Valjoux 7750 tri-compax layout, maintaining excellent legibility in a true tool-watch format. The 40mm case delivers a strong wrist presence while retaining the unmistakable design language of early Heuer chronographs.
Powered by the iconic Valjoux 7750 automatic movement, the Pasadena offers robustness, reliability, and a direct link to the mechanical chronograph golden era. The watch is fitted to a black Heuer pin buckle and period-correct racing-style strap, complementing its motorsport heritage.
Presented in good vintage condition, this example is supplied as a watch-only timepiece — very common for Heuer pieces of this era — and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a historically important, factory-PVD Heuer with its original movement and architecture intact.
