I just went to a nice little regional watch show in Fountain Hills/Phoenix, AZ. I saw a bunch of the California dealer crowd. A bunch of them asked me what was happening with Heuer. I gave them the same basic answer Jeff gave above and which we all know and believe. Some of them felt burned and were ditching inventory. I saw a fairly decent red Silverstone on a bracelet for $5,000 and a pretty decent Carrera 12 Dato 2547S for $3,500. Both seemed pretty decent buys. It seems to be a great time to be a Heuer collector again...unless you are constantly thinking about what your collection used to be worth.
