Readers: What was your first Heuer moment??


Ralf:

Interesting to go back to the very first Heuer experience.

In 1998, I saw an article in an English "classic cars" magazine that showed a selection of the stopwatches and timers used to time races and rallies in the 1960's; the spread included a photo of a Rally-Master pair that caught my eye; I bought my first dash-mounted timer in December 1998 (Super Autavia (shown below) for $600, after a "reserve not met auction"); and the rest is history.



So do you still have this Kentucky? At least a photo?
