I like these watches also. They have clean lines as well as some design 'quirks' (eg. fontainebleu case) which really endear these watches. I picked up one of each cal11/12 watch recently. In regards to price, I find them much cheaper than the Heuers with the same movement. Maybe I wast just lucky with mine.

Good luck Brook and keep looking.

: It's certainly left the realms of a bargain, but it's not expensive
: for a Cal 11/12 watch. And what a handsome one it is - I think
: you have great taste in watches Brook. I must confess that these
: make my wallet twitch more than a lot of Heuers do.

: I'm not sure the market price for Hamilton chrono-matics is as
: clearly defined as Heuers have become. Looking around eBay, you
: find two pretty much identical fontainebleus, but the buy-it-now
: price ranges from ~$900 to ~$1800. And the fontainebleu, in my
: eyes, is not as attractive a watch as this model. Your watch is
: starting to look like more and more of a bargain.
