The "Sheene" *PIC*

Regarding the pictures below these are the facts:

The date is 1976. The man on the left is Barry Sheene and the man on the right is his father Frank Sheene. The bike is a factory Grand Prix 500cc Suzuki on which Sheene won the world championship.

Regarding the chronograph watch Frank Sheene is wearing:

It does not look like a Heuer so what is it? Remember this is 1976 so it can't be electric.

If it did happen to be a Heuer do you think we would now desire the "Sheene" variant of whatever the original model was?

I believe it might be a Tissot what do y'all* think?
