Interesting eBay Listing / Praise for Menta Watches

Interesting to see this one listed on eBay -- http://www.ebay.com/itm/201553409217

Praise to MentaWatches, for this passage of the description:

    Please note: there has been debate amongst leading Heuer scholars as to whether or not this dial is correct for this case. One leading scholar's opinion is that this watch has an MK1 case, and the dial is from an MK3 execuition. Other Heuer scholars and collectors disagree with this assessment. We invite you to review the pictures and decide for yourself. Please feel free to ASK QUESTIONS and do as much research as you please. There is no such thing as a bad question, so please contact us as you wish.

Let me also point out that Menta had this watch listed for sale on their own website, but decided to pull the listing when they were unable to reach a definitive conclusion regarding the authenticity of the watch.

So tell me -- what do you think of this Autavia? Rare execution? Combination of parts / Franken? What is it? Would you be happy looking at it / wearing it?
