: We are accustomed to seeing these sold by the crooks on eBay,
: but it's unusual / unprecedented to see one being offered by a
: reputable dealer --

: So how do you like this description of the watch: This is a
: very beautiful and fine made Heuer Mono Pusher Chronograph. The
: case was mode decades later than the movement, that originally
: came out from a Heuer Pocket watch -Marriage! Still this watch
: has a great look and the case has a well fitted screw down back.
: Of course, Heuer never made this watch, or anything
: resembling this watch, but the fakes have been coming out of the
: Czech Republic and Poland for a long time now. I can't recall
: seeing a dealer offer one, or at least not any reputable dealer.
: There is no reason to believe that any part of this watch came
: from a Heuer watch: refinished dial; hands not from a Heuer;
: movement, with fake Heuer marking, probably not from Heuer;
: modern-day case.

: Should a reputable dealer offer a watch like this?
