Re: Can Someone Please Tell Me What I Just Bought

: I assume that this one goes in the

: was, but the recent "barrage" of

: Thanks,

hi jeff

looks like a black case 7750 Montreal, otherwise known as a Passadena. hands are pure Eterna Porsche Design but the rest looks Heuer. i don't know the exact details of Heuer's relationship to Le Jour but would guess that there was some tie up with the French case makes who put together the divers watches.

does anyone know more?
