: I am a huge fan of the Calculator so all I can say is buy it if you
: like it. I would not give investment advice, rather buy the
: watch because you would enjoy wearing it. On a cursory look the
: watch looks good and the price seems ok.
: I am not aware of a 70s formula one driver who wore it, but it is
: worn by the current head of design of BMW. In addition, there is
: a current Ferrari team engineer and Heuer collector who wears
: one....that is good enough taste for me!
: The watch was pitched also at pilots; there is a rare Calculator
: version that was produced for the Beechcraft aircraft
: manufacturer in the 70s. I’ll post a photo if I get the
: chance.
Thank
: Good luck

Dear Shaun
Thanks for your prompt feedback. I like the watch. Wish it had some formula one connection :).. I've seen the Beechcraft version on the forum.
Can anyone please send me a scanned copy of the Calculator booklet which mentions how to use the slide-rule? I shall be most grateful
( I have read Mr Maddox's Navitimer one)
Thanks in advance
