: Hi and thanks Chuck for response. m.o.a.t very usefull well done to authors. My journey started with being l/handed and looking for a watch with the winder at nine, bought a couple of Panerai destro models though impressive watches a bit soulless, Graham Chonofighter, Dubey Schaldenbrand Caprice, Sinn ezm1 (one of my favs)
Breitling nos chronographe same movement as Heuer! which brought me to Carrera, Montreal, purchase. I think this series has strong lines great dials and an interesting theme behind a good quality inovative movement. What I have discovered in the short time I have been looking is these vintage Heuers are in demand and dealers are marking up some very ambitious prices. Great if you have them allready.

: vintage: monaco, silverstone,monza,,,,,
: series That's a lot of ,,,,,,'s! =)

: As a newcomer enthusiast to Heuer through a
: roundabout journey Sounds like an
: interesting story! Feel free to share!

: I have fallen for the vintage 70's automatic
: f1 race track themed series and would like
: to attempt a collection. A
: thought/theme that has intrigued me too!
: Don't forget the Kentucky... Even though
: it's not a "F1 Themed" watch it is
: a nifty "Racetrack" Themed watch
: even if the participants have a decidedly
: different idea about horsepower.

: I have so far Carrera and Montreal could
: anyone help me with difinitive list of what
: models were produced,in what calibers by,
: year/model/serial no's etc.. You don't
: ask for much. Six months ago this
: information really didn't exist on the web.
: Thanks to the efforts of Jeff Stein, Bruce
: Mackie, Hans Schrag, with a little HTML
: assistance by myself, we have a start on
: that information: Heuer Chronograph
: Master Reference Table (a.k.a. MOAT: the
: Mother Of All Tables)

: Note: There are some models we know exist,
: like the Cortina, but we do not (or at least
: have not) had access to them (in the past)
: in order to qualify and quantify them in any
: way.

: I would like to collect nos or mint quality
: pieces, help with prices for model/condition
: would be greatly appreciated. Prices or
: even price ranges are very difficult to
: accurately state, for the collectors market
: on chronographs is a commodity trade. What
: might go for $425 today, might go for $970
: next week and vice versa. Condition means a
: lot as well as the reputation of the seller.
: What I have used in the nearly 5 years since
: I started seriously collecting is completed
: auction searches on eBay. There may be a
: better way, but I haven't found it yet.

: But please feel free to post follow-up's!
