: The approaching warm weather in the UK seems to have gone to my
: head & I have just probably gone a bit mad & bought this
: watch off Ebay.
: I had been watching it for quite a while while it had a BIN price
: that I thought was a bit steep so I waited & it ended up at
: auction - a great theory on my part other than I paid close to
: the BIN price I had stayed clear off. A sad refelction on the
: perils of getting caught up in the heat of an auction.
: I have a vague recollection of some threads on this watch in the
: past with a conclusion that it was genuine (was there one in the
: Heuer museum?). I do hope it is real or I have just wasted my
: money.
: Its a very unusual watch that I guess many people wont like -
: personally I think it looks a great watch if slightly unusual
: but I will be interesting to see what reaction it gets when I
: wear it.
: Apparantly its from 1967 (so the listing said), but OTD doesnt have
: a 67 catalogue so I wondered if anyone could shed any more light
: on it?
: Jeff - I couldnt see it anywhere in the Carrera listings - just
: wondered if it was appearing on your new forthcoming mother of
: all tables (MOAT seems like a decent acronym for it!).
