Hi. It would appear from your comments you've consulted 'brown snout' and are familiar with the considerations of originality and / or authenticity http://brown-snout.com/horology/articles/heuer_bundeswehr_chrono/
If you like it and can afford it then you should go for it (though that comment is not directed specifically at this piece / its price). Is the Heuer Bund the most desirable of models? No. I can't easily imagine a situation in several years time where you selling your Bund will whip the collector community into a state of frenzy, but there's every possibility you'll easily find it a new home when the time comes for you to pass it on.
Personaly, I own a Bund and I love it.
Wear in good health if you decide to pull the trigger.
Hello all,

: as I think I could, so before getting this watch I was wondering
: if revered collectors I could be selling this watch to some

: sells it and said that he got it from the german pilot that was
: issued this watch, he kept it 15 years during his military run.
: He serviced it in 2010 and works perfectly. Obviously it looks a
: bit perfect to be original but it does not bother me as long as
: the dial + hands show correct patina.
: Do you believe it is a solid model for 3keuros ?
: Thanks in advance for your opinions
