Sorry Jordan....
In Response To: Camaro Authenticity ()

There isn't a lot Heuer nor original here.

Dial-no
Hands-no
case-possibly (you'd need to check if a serial number is present)
Crown-possibly-is it signed?
Pushers-probably not
Movement-unlikely. If anything it looks to be a Valjoux 92 but not original Heuer for a number of reasons.

It's not great I'm afraid. Hope you can get your money back....!

Thanks,
Steve

: So, in a moment of over-exuberance, I committed to this purported
: 7734. After careful study (which should've conducted sooner), I
: now have my doubts. I put it to the group for honest evaluation
: - what's going on with this Camaro?

: Firstly, I've never seen another red dial. Secondly, A 7734 should
: have a date, but the seller could have simply mislabeled a 7733.
: More disconcerting: The markers are too broad; the tachy has odd
: little circles where the lume should be, and I can't quite match
: the tachy markers to any other dial I've seen; the hands are
: squared instead of arrows at the end; the subs aren’t inset
: like they should be; and the subdial hands aren’t thin and
: straight.

: The movement and case check out, but I can't get around the issues
: with the dial. Would love to hear the experts' opinions . . .
