: The Caliber 12 Monaco just sold at $3,600 . . .
: maybe $500 to $1,000 more than the typical

: Does this give the vintage Heuer community a
: bad name, as people in the auction room and
: people reviewing the results see that the
: top-of-the-line vintage Heuer sold for only
: $3,600?

: Jeff

I am also watching the auction intermittantly. I noted this piece sold to the "room". I think those knowledgeable know the piece was not correct and thus there were no serious collectors bidding.

Want to bet this one is on Ebay within a month?
