FS: VERY RARE Heuer ref. 988 013 in 18K Gold Case & Bracelet

Over the last 20 years I have accumulated many watches and among them a good number of collectible chronographs.
Since you guys love chronographs I decided to post them for sale here. :)
Offered here a VERY RARE Heuer ref. 988 013 diving watch in solid 18K gold case
and bracelet. This model was produced by Heuer Co. in the mid 1980s just about
when the company was purchased by Tag. The watch has a very interesting glass like
bezel insert. The "nipple" dial is almost a copy of Rolex GMT gold model from
1960s to mid 1980s. Case measures 39.6 mm by 44.7 mm.
The bracelet connects to the case with screws, not spring bars
as widely used by most other companies.
Total weight is 108 grams of which 85 grams is the gold weight alone.
Here is a copy from 1985/6 Heuer catalog showing this model:

My asking price is $7900.
The priced is based on my market research. If you want to make a respectable offer by all means do.
I would however kindly request that you show me what you base your offer on.
