Eight months ago, we saw this Glycine triple calendar chronograph listed for sale, at a public auction.

It failed to sell, with an estimate of $6,700 to $10,000. Have a look here -- http://chronocentric.com/forums/heuer/index.cgi?md=read;id=89010

The "poor man's" triple calendar chronographs (for example, Zodiac and Clebar) sell at less than 50 cents on the dollar, compared with the Heuers. I suspect that this very rare Glycine is worth around $3,000 to $4,000, but that is only a guess.

Remember folks -- don't confuse "scarcity" and "value". If you are confused, perhaps you want to buy this Memphis, which seems to be one-of-one, the rarest Heuer of all.
