Triple Calendar Chrono *PIC*

Hello everybody,

I found a nice Heuer chronograph. The person selling it says it is equipped with a Valjoux 72C movement.

See picture hereunder.

As I don't know much about watches, I have many questions.....

1) What model is this?

2) is this a "rare" piece or not? In other words, should I buy this one (I like the model quite much), or do I have a chance to find another example within the next few months?

3) Are there fakes of this model? Hoe can I recognize a fake from a real one?

4) Idea of price range? 1700eur seems reasonnable? It comes with a 1 year warranty. It has clearly been used and shows traces of it, but I find it in "good state". Obviously, nothing compared to "new old stock"...

That's it for now.

Thanks a million in advance for your answers.

Kais
