You must be kidding !
I would much rather have a Porsche Carrera 911 2.2, 2.4, 2.7, 3.0 or 3.2 liter vintage (or any the choice of a myriad of vintage sport cars available for 27K) instead of that watch. Much more more fun and far easier to re-sell.
: Hello OTD,
: PRICE ADJUSTED
: I am posting this watch again - I don't keep up well with values
: and I am adjusting the price of this watch down a little.
: As much as it annoys me, I have not been wearing this as I actually
: have been a little scared of damaging it with it's awesome
: backstory. The funds will become an old 911 project car, so I
: hope you guys at least approve of the direction I am going!
: This is a remarkable Rindt due to it's condition but equally the
: story and letters that accompany it. I got to know the original
: owner quite well a number of years ago after he posted that he
: might have "an old Autavia from the 60's for sale, with
: some letters." As you can imagine, I almost lost my mind
: when I realized arguments that he essentially had with Heuer
: about his watch not working resulted in a brilliant letter from
: Jack Heuer - it was in reply to him saying that Heuer
: "Stinks". If you purchase the watch, we should talk on
: the phone and I'll give you the whole story and process of
: buying it, it was great fun.
: Photography and Hodinkee article are
: https://shop.hodinkee.com/blogs/journal/wotw-1966-heuer-autavia-jochen-rindt-letter-signed-by-jack-heuer
: The watch went to Abel and received a full service. The central
: seconds hand was incorrect, courtesy of the many trips to Tag
: service department, it was corrected to one from a 2446c.
: Establishing the value that these letters add is obviously a dark
: art, but I am looking at offers around $27k USD shipped and
: insured. I have plenty of references as needed and will not make
: this a complicated sale - I am hoping you will do the same. Many
: thanks to OTD for a great space. References if needed - Jeff and
: Abel know me, I've bought from Bernard, some of my watches were
: at the Heuer Museum in Motion etc.
