Greetings,

I would like to reintroduce myself and give a positive feedback for Jorge Barroso. Some may see under Jorge's listing but it's difficult to notice by many members since it is an old post.

I have been an outside observer of the forum for about a year now. I don't know much about the brand until I discovered OTD. I am very interested and fascinated in those vintage Heuer, especially Monaco and Autavia. Thank all members for the extensive information you all have posted on this site! What a great resource! I'm still learning everyday.

About the auction...luckily I had an opportunity to deal with Jorge who is a long time member. Also thank Jorge for trusting me because I am new here. He has a good reputation and I feel comfortable to deal with him. He is very professional and responds to my email quickly. The transaction is smooth! I later found that this is the second informal auction here. It's almost like a silence auction but you could interact with the seller. At the end I feel like I bought a watch from a good friend, not just a shop or an auction house.

I received the watch, box and bracelet in two separate shipments from Portugal to SF Bay Area. Jorge knows how to deal with international shipment so both packages arrived in two days. The items are same as described. This is my second vintage Heuer and I plan to keep it for a long time. My son already asked if I would give to him when he grows up.

Best Regards,
Manus
