: I wanted to know if anyone else has noticed
: that a certain buyer:
: "buccaneer-one" seems to bid on
: many, many heuer watches. Does anyone know
: who this person is? Maybe a dealer perhaps?
: He must have one heck of a collection but
: seems to sell some other odd watches.
Hello. I am "buccaneer-one". I do have a collection of Heuers (200 plus). I have sent Jeff some pictures of a few of my more interesting pieces which I am sure he will publish on "OTD" when time permits. I did a small introduction concerning myself and how I became a accidental Heuer Collector by way of a graduation gift in 1966. If you look back through the other articles you will find mine concerning this. I have sold approximately 10 or 12 Heuer on eBay, the rarest being a mint condition Monaco Cal 15 with Silverburst Dial (wish I had kept it). The other "odd" watches you mention are from having five children (1 daughter and 4 sons) and cleaning out drawers after the 3 oldest (34, 31 & 24) departed leaving the two youngest boys (13 and 11) home. These two refuse to wear "odd" watches. So, I have given both of them TAG Heuer Super Professionals and Tag Heuer SEL Automatic Chronographs (one blue dial and the other white). It is amazing how the younger childen seem to always get the best. I don't mind and I am glad that they too, will one day become Heuer and TAG Heuer Collectors---I guess they already are. Charles
