A Heuer 844 Monnin Diver

This one will leave in a couple of days.

They're not much discussed,

they are appealing affordable Heuer though IMO

I thought it could be an idea to share the photos I've sent to the (very) enthusiastic buyer.

Case is the most noticeable element to me, its shape is quite unique I think,

ugly for some, beautiful to me !

Cathedral and lollipop hands are cracking,

the dial is a joy to look at,

the key feature are certainly these magnificent tiny red indexes.

which could find their origins in this Longines "Big Indian" from the 40s

Cheap quartz movement (works fine though) allowing the watch to remain affordable

Here the (screwed) crown is fully pulled out

Case back details for reference

I hope you enjoyed this one as much as I did these years, I'm glad it'll leave to another enthusiast

Best,

Laurent
