Yes, I have been a Hodinkee fan for a long time (Summer 2009, if I recall correctly), but this description and price ($15,000) look about right to me.
Great to see these high quality, high resolution photos . . . certainly addresses my pet peeve with many dealers -- pixel count going down, as the asking price goes up.
Here is a link to the LISTING.
How do others see it?
All photos from the Hodinkee listing.

: People wondered if and when this might happen, and the answer is
: "Yes" and "March 8, 2016".
: Details here -- Introducing The New HODINKEE Shop . . . billed as
: an entirely new way to buy and sell watches (plus lots of other
: neat things, too) . . . and I am telling you that I believe the
: hype!!
: The market for vintage watches has hardly gotten more efficient,
: since the launch of this little website called "eBay".
: We see a lot of shady dealers, selling lousy watches, for big
: money / insane profits . . . and new enthusiasts can't buy them
: fast enough. Since when did the words "curate" or
: "select" mean "rip off"?
: It will be fascinating to see what Hodinkee can do to change this
: market, or at least stake out a good position in the market.
: Hodinkee is a trusted name; with a unique / massive following;
: access to "everyone" in the business (and some great
: watches); and I believe that Ben is an honest guy . . . oh, and
: best of all, he is a died-in-the-wool Heuer enthusiast!!
: This will be interesting to follow . . . March 6, 2016 . . . mark
: that on your calendar!!
: Your reactions and comments, please . . .
