Re: My view
In Response To: Question on authenticy ()

Hi Ron

I have seen a few examples of these before, but I have not studied one in person closely.

Where the printed area is, do small holes exist where the baton markers would be affixed to? This is how they are placed & affixed on the dial. If there are holes it may mean the markers have fallen off?

The printed may be original, I'm not sure without a Heuer veteran to verify this.

One thing, I greatly prefer the look of the baton marker dials.

I'm convinced the Monacos generally are not "faked" so if all other markings are correct you may have an original.

Regards

Stewart.
