: the following is from the auction catalog: This item is a
: 1978 Heuer "Silverstone" stainless steel man's
: chronograph wristwatch. Mike apparently had four of these
: watched engraved and gave them as gifts to the team who worked
: with him at his "come back" TT in 1978 on the Isle of
: Man. This one was given to long term "mate" and de
: facto manager, Ted Macauley. Ted retained this watch, seemingly
: unworn for 31 years, before finally parting with it to the
: vendor. Reported to be in working order, this is a very special
: and desireable wristwatch indeed, not only for being a Heuer
: Silverstone, but with the Hailwood connection as well.....
