Trying to identify this watch.

My favorite band is RUSH and here we have Geddy Lee sporting a nice timepiece that I can’t determine.

I know it’s kinda ridiculous but I really want to know what he is wearing here if anyone can tell.

Clearly he’s an “Analog Kid”.

Looks like a Tag to me

You should “Rush” out and buy one!

As a historical reference, Siffert was an ambassador for Heuer. He was a Swiss racing driver for Porsche in the endurance championships and in a few different F1 teams. He died in a horrible crash in a non-championship F1 race in Brands Hatch in 1971. His BRM’s suspension broke after a collision with Ronnie Peterson a lap or two before his crash. I was watching that race on TV. The car rolled over and caught fire. Ironically, his first F1 win was at the same track.

Before I saw the comment about having found it, I was going to say that it looked like a vintage Hamilton Chronomatic:

Article has better resolution photo of what appears the same watch in his collection

Judging by blue accent on markers and hands I think either Jo Siffert edition or Autavia Ref 1163T (tbh - not sure if both are just different names for same watch)
