Great topic Abel

The way i see it this could quite possibley be the greatest gathering of Heuer's the world has ever seen. It is in essence a living, active archive of the history of Heuer. Between Arno's auction pieces and the watches on the wrists of the public this will be the greatest display of the best the Heuer company ever had to offer, most likely to be more impressive than the static display at the Tag Heuer museum in Switzerland.
Under these circumstances i think its most important to bring the rarest birds out for display and wonder.
I will , myself, be wearing my paintless wonder Monaco Chronomatic on the left wrist.

And have another rare bird as a surprise on the right wrist.
I look forward to seeing you all there - Darren

: Hello gentlemen,

: I've been quite busy (privately) these past couple of weeks
: (months). Having a 10 months old little girl, a wife that's
: pregnant for six months now and building your own house doesn't
: leave me much time to spend with my other love and passion -
: vintage Heuer timepieces. For this reason I've been not posting
: as much as before...but ofcourse trying to read and follow the
: discussions at least once every two days or so...

: I'm looking forward to Arno's auction and ofcourse also finally
: meet the faces behind the e-mails and telephones. It will be a
: great event and I believe it will be very intense.

: A question that already spooks in my mind some weeks now is what
: watches you'll all be wearing. Well, I'll wear my two
: favourites. My absolute favourite most of you know....the one
: that ignited the Heuer passion for me, my beloved 1533G - The
: perfect Monaco for me.
:
:
: The second one I don't know yet but I already have a clue...still
: have to figure out which one ;-)

: I'll try to shoot some fresh pics over the weekend and will get
: them posted here as soon as my decision has been made.

: And what about you?? Come on guys show us what you'll be sporting
: at Bonhams in December!

: Looking forward to some nice watches/pictures.

: Best regards from Belgium,
: Abel.
