Valjoux cal 69 chrono.....

I do not have a chronograph (any brand) with an R69 movement in my collection so I bought this the other day:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120957616794&ssPageName=ADME:L:OU:US:3160
I would not have been interested in these parts accept they came with a signed stainless back and the movement insert is around 30mm. I would estimate the case to be at least 35mm OD and in stainless or gold plate. Given the size of the insert, I suspect it may have been installed originally in a case that was originally designed for another movement, perhaps an R23 which is 29.5mm. If any of you have an R69 Heuer fitting this discription, please let me know. Should be an interesting project. Thanks, Craig
