Heuer Le Mans; she's a stunner

I think I'm in love.

I particularly like the Stewart/Paul-esque use of lighting to create a moody atmosphere. I can't help thinking though that although it is very artistic, it doesn't really show off much about the watch. In this case, I understand why!!!

Finally managed to watch some of the Olympics yesterday and saw a bit of Women's Beach Volleyball. My. Word.

Miss Dampney has a very pert derriere for those who missed it.

: Love the very careful, highly detailed description of the dial:
: A very nice, preserved in good condition for it's age. However,
: it is not in perfect condition, i.e. it has some aging marks -
: it's surface is glossy the same way at all areas (therefore I
: pictured it in different lighting intensivity and different
: angles). The letter 'E' of the 'LE MANS' is somehow worn
: ('white-washed'). I do not know the history of that defect.
: Minutes and hours hands, by a desing, are partially covered with a
: glossy layer - there are aging marks visible as micro-breakages
: on that surface (it is pictured on the photos). Oh yeah, and
: I forgot one little detail . . . it's a fake!!
