Siffert wearing Monaco; McQueen wearing Autavia

Here is my own little tribute -- Siffert wearing a Monaco and McQueen wearing an Autavia, as they rode togther on a motorcycle. We remember that without Siffert, the "Heuer" name may never appeared on a racecar and McQueen may never have shown any interest in the Heuers; without McQueen, we would not have had the magic of the Monaco.

It is interesting to see them switched -- Siffert wearing a Monaco and McQueen wearing an Autavia . . . indeed, with some minor changes in events, these two icons could each have been associated with the watch traditionally worn by the other.
