Hi, PuristS. Today (September 7th) is my birthday. I was born a day like this of 1974. I would like to excuse myself for posting photographs of just one watch lately, but they're hard times to me. I must have the doubtful privilege of being the poorest member of all mechanical horology international fora. Anyway, I'm grateful to life for being alive and kicking still. Not only. As a famous Cuban songwriter sings: "amo a una mujer clara que amo y me ama". Thank you all for your comprehension and friendship. Cheers.

Happy Birthday my friend. That is a good looking Heuer Chronograph. Poor and rich are all in the mind. A couple of years ago, I recall Bill Gates in a slum in India spending sometime with a family of four that lived in less than 300sq.ft but looked extrem...

Congratulations! Second thought: Is it only me, who can see a beautiful and interesting watch that belongs to you? Oliver

And all you need to bring here is passion and enthusiasm. You'll always be made welcome. Andrew
Aficionado.

I got all the enthusiasm and passion untouched, Andrew. In the last years I've spent a lot of hours reading hodinkee, equation du temps, fratello watches, gianvittorioheuer, etc. from A to Z.
It's ont about money, it's about passion.

Have a great day. You have one very nice looking chronograph which I would be proud to own and cherish. I am on puristspro to learn and for the friendship. There are many watches at price points that I would never be able to afford, but that does not keep...
Nothing wrong with that, my friend.

And this Heuer is a pleasure to see. There will be better times, and then maybe a sister to this Carrera? Another Carrera, Heuer, or? This watch will be special one for you, a trusty companion which shared the good and the bad times... A sentumental keepe...
Merci, mon ami.

When I was 13 years old, my idols were Dominique Wilkins and Larry Bird. Five years later, I used to admire Woody Allen a lot. David Russell, Jimmy Raney and James Emery are three guitarists I've listened with pleasure and devotion. But nowadays, if I adm...

Thank you all for having read and answered my message in a very friendly way, as usual.
Happy birthday!

that's a nice Heuer. Horology can indeed be a very costly thing, but you can enjoy smaller things as well and there are still some hidden treasures! Matt

. . . or many, or even none, it's the purity of intentions that matter; on that count, you are most welcome here. Happy birthday, Swiss Made, and may your wishes for future additions come true. Cordially, Art
Thank you, Art.

I adore mechanical watches. I love women and vintage watches, not necessarily in that order ;-)
happy birthday sir

It is a cool watch. I had one too but sold it away last year.

I used to listen to his records when I was 18-year-old. I saw him once in concert in Las Ventas (Madrid). Thank you for your comment. I agree: this chronograph is a watch that is worth keeping.
