Historic Heuer Berlin Olympics?

I spotted this Heuer stopwatch on eBay which is supposed to be from the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. I'm really not an expert in Heuer stopwatches, so I'd be interested in any information. Is it "real"? Personally, I would not want to own it because of the association with the Nazis but historically it is a fascinating watch if it is not faked. Any comments or more background?
