Bruce:

I hold you in the very highest regard as an expert on these old Heuers, a skilled detective, a committed restorer, a world-class photographer, and a really nice guy. That said, I cannot see how you defend this chronograph, even for a moment.

Studying the case, dial, hands, crown, pushers, inner bezel, and color scheme, I cannot see any element that is likely to have come from a real Heuer. Oddly, the most genuine looking element may be the movement, and it is difficult to be certain about that.

Am I missing something??

Best,

Jeff

: hi guys

: as i previously said, i thiink it's one of the
: budget chronographs normally seen with a
: grey dial and 7733 or 7734 movement. it
: would seem to have had a previously unsigned
: dial fitted and the case has been polished
: to within an inch of it's life and has thus
: lost it's brushed finish. as for the pushers
: and crown, the best i can say is oh dear.

: anyway at least at heart it seems to be a Heuer
: and perhaps worth $250 given the grey dial
: versions usually struggle to reach $450.

: i hope the new buyer is happy but i feel they
: are unlikely to remain so once they've seen
: these postings.
