Just trying to determine the origin of your frustration. Is it the suggestion in your pic that the re-screened clock face implies Heuer movement behind the scenes, or is it that someone is using a famous logo with too much enthusiasm that borderlines on trademark infringement?

As an aside, the actual movement behind that clock originally was Kienzle (mechanical), but there is the distinct possibility that it is now quartz due to ravages of time on mechanical units (different topic entirely, movement change).

Not my car, btw.
