the Heuer bug has bitten me big time

Post by caesarmascetti » Sun Jan 24, 2016 4:51 am

will post pics as soon as I can, but the vintage Heuer Bug has bitten me hard, just picked up two, and Autavia Viceroy with Cal 12 movement, and a Monza blue dial also cal 12 movement. Let the madnesss begin. Funny enough the old Steve McQueen movie Lemans brought this on

That's for sure. I paid $800. for the last Autavia Viceroy that I bought, but that was several years ago.

So judging from all the continuous thread bumps and post padding, you're getting ready to sell a watch. Just post the watch you're going to try to push and spare us the necro bumps
