Le Mans 24 Hours : hour 11

11 gone, 13 to go.

Still hoping for a "change in driver" and someone else will take on these posts!

But time for one last post tonight. These are the real Heuers. We should remember Jack Heuer estimated they sold 10 stopwatches for every 1 watch. Heuer was basically a stop watch manufacturer with a small (but very cool) business as a chronograph maker.

Thats why you can't fault the "tool watch" credentials of Heuer (before the deluge of 85). No one buys a stop watch as a fashion item, only for functional reasons.
