Hello all!
I’m looking to purchase this one and noticed the pushers are different than any other I’ve seen on the same re-edition. Would anyone have any info regarding this? I know the watch itself is authentic but not sure what’s going on with the pushers.

Thank you!

Best guess is someone replaced the pushers but didn't have genuine parts? I'd be concerned about what else might be up with this one unless it's dirt cheap - these are super easy to find in much better condition and don't cost much in the grand scheme of watches

Interesting and here I thought it was a good deal at $1750 - thanks for the info. I wonder if could find genuine pushers to replace.

Not worth the effort, better ones can be for similar $$$.

This watch is new enough that you'd have to send it to TAG, which would run your bill above what it would cost to buy a top condition example with all boxes / papers and original strap. Not worth the effort x2

Thank you for helping me and stopping me from making a mistake! I did find another on ebay (only place I can find any of them these recent days) but it has a bad chip on the crystal which I'm assuming would cost a good amount and put me over also (going for $2600 with box/papers) unless a plexi would cost less than finding legit pushers haha

I think you may find a good one (complete, clean but unserviced) for around 2k, some were not worn that much. Add 3-400 for service. Search our Heuer sister forum maybe?
