Belief in Santa and other far fetched ideas... *PIC*

What is the story with this "deep purple" cal15 Monaco? Anyone heard of such a model?

I believe in it, but I have no proof that it is a real Heuer model except it looks 100% right (see the pic comparison with more common blue cal15 monaco).

Maybe it is faded black dial, I'm very dubious that it is a faded blue version.

Anyway it's my latest buy, and I believe in it, even if I am not sure of the explanation.

Any ideas or opinions?
