Great discussion guys but I have no idea what watch everyone is discussing. Was it offered on Chronotrader, or maybe e-bay, or perhaps a dealer? I read all the posts this morning but never found a link to the actual watch being listed. Hopefully Jeff will receive permission to post photos as I'm flushed with curiousity to see what all the fuss is about. Plus I'll hopefully add to my knowledge base due to all these posts once I see accompanying photos.

: so here to sum up:

: watch case: has 141xxx numbering and ranging within chronomatic
: numbering (no confirmation by heuer i guess?).
: watch case: is refurbished: its a pitty in my eyes because finding
: a similar non refurbished one is very tricky: in the aboves
: numbering range. so why refurbishing a case of a watch which is
: nos?
: dial: is original
: case back: is original
: sticker. i dont trust in this sticker: but again its about the dial
: hands: look fine to me.
: movement: seems to be from a later model: but why should someone
: exchange a complete movement in a service? makes no sence to
: me...especially with nos watch?
: box: is not original to me. however again its about the dial. so
: reselling the box solves the "problem"
: bezel: looks fine to me

: for the lucky winner: i do have (a real nos) original gf bracelet
: to this model with the small claps: absolutelly unused....

: good luck
