Heuer "Le Mans"

OK it's a wild theory, but what would you think is this watch build for :



To use it in the night! YES

For military use ? NO; military watches have no Tachy-bezel and are black!
A pilot watch? NO pilot-watches have fly-back and 24 hours indiction.
For diving? NO; divers have an other bezel!

Heuers world is Racing. And racing can be also in the Night. What's about Le Mans. This watch is perfect for using in the night with the big tritium-markers. The orange hands, they stand for racing. And why is there no "LeMans" watch? And Ok its a prototype, a tool-watch only for this special use. For racing in the night.

Are they arguments against this theory?

Cheers Andreas
