Re: Very nice
In Response To: Re: Thanks ()

: Would be difficult to hazard a guess as to
: "who made who" but if I could,
: then I would say Heuer were the likely
: candidates to put the case, bracelet and
: dial together, and of course Lemania made
: the movements.

: The Lemania would be regarded as the poor man's
: Heuer, but given that it was it was more
: expensive than the Heuer Audi, then this is
: a real contradiction of terms! I had to have
: teh lemania though to match the Heuer (the
: words spoken of a real hard core addict)

: Note that on the side view, the Heuer crown
: looks bigger. In the picture, the crwon was
: pulled out, but the Lemania was pushed in.

Nice case design Thanks for sharring!
I find both interesting as nether has the fluted pushers. I also would say the band is nice and also used by Bucherer on there chronos'
I really wish I got one of these with this case back when thay where a bit cheaper.
My 2 cents about price as you guys also seem to think Close very close, But for a high Doller Quick sale I would say the Heuer would go fastest.
Can you tell if thay are both fast beat 28,800 movments? one of my 5100s with out day and the straghter chrono min.hand is a 21000 beat.
It may help to start the chrono & look at the second hand one will be a tick smother.
take care Very Nice!!!!!
