Some day, I will do the full comparison (Pasadena versus
Lejour), but for now, let me show off these photos.
Jeff,
In anticipation of your comparison I am providing pics of a
Pasadena I bought in 1980. It has a case shape like many of the
LeJours and very few of the Heuers. I asked Chuck about this
variant a few years ago and he opined that as Heuer was in such
desperate condition at that time they probably were throwing
all kinds of parts together to cut costs. So it seems likely that
this could be appropriately called a Poor Heuer Man's Watch in
contrast to the LeJours which have been termed Poor Man's
Heuer Watch. I have a bunch of pics of Lejour PMH and clones if
you need them.
