Here is what Google translate made of the description:
It is an exhibition of Heuer made in 1974 [CAMARO] chronograph
About 25 years ago I got dead stock at overseas auction and stocked it
After obtaining it overhauled immediately, I only used it a few times privately
It keeps dead stock state almost without scratches at all
In addition, although Hoey [CAMARO] chronograph has a type without a bezel, there are things to see
This type of rotating bezel has never been seen in the past even in the antique market
It can be said that it is a very rare gem
