Here's my number 1 watch on my wish list. I really wanted to have a Heuer Monaco 1133B for a very long time.
One of the few places where you see one come a cross every now and then is Ebay.
So I followed a couple of auctions and I finally had some luck with placing the winning bid.
This one comes from Italy, I noticed that there are quite some Heuer Monaco's comming from Italy. The state of my Monaco is pretty good i guess.
The case is still orignal but it has a few nicks and scratches and the lume on the hands and dial have almost faded away.
The movement runs good, but the central second hand doesnt reset to zero but about 3 minutes past twelve.
I'm thinking about giving this watch a restoration and probably by the LVHM group in Switzerland. Maybe you guys have some advice about restoring my Monaco?
