Re: I Don't Call It a "Fake"; I Also Don't Call it a "Heuer"
In Response To: I Don't Call It a "Fake"; I Also Don't Call it a "Heuer" ()

Jeff,
in this case, are not Heuers also Autavia 1563 with tropical dial and 3446 Autavia Tachy dial!

Law is the same for all!

;-)

: Ultimately, perhaps this discussion comes down to the question
: of "What is a fake?" and "What is a Heuer?".

: To me this watch is not a "fake", but it is also not a
: "Heuer". According to my language, it becomes a
: "fake" when someone calls it a "Heuer". It
: appears that Heuer didn't make these watches -- they may have
: ordered the dials, but they did not produce the watches. People
: can use their own terminology and conventions; to me, we muddy
: the waters when we call this one either a "fake" or a
: "Heuer".
