Anyone like vintage Heuer carrera?

This one was one of my ultimate watch dreams come true. I got it a while back. Must have searched ebay 5 whole years, and  every imaginable sales-site--then one day, of course, by accident, found it . I expected it to be SOLD, but incredibly it was not yet gone. I  emailed the seller--SOLD! And he emailed me back saying, "I don't know if I can part with it."  This broke my heart.  I kept pestering him, finally sending him an email saying I wish I'd never seen  your  ad! Please put me out of my misery!  He emailed me back saying I could have it.

I've owned a lot of fancy pants watches, and I love a nice watch, but this one is a holy holy holy grail. It will never be sold.

It is in about 97-98% condition, freshly serviced, running spot on, all original.

It also came with box and original instruction manual, as well as the original unworn strap! And as you can see, the mintiest shiniest, tightest-clasp original Heuer bracelet I've ever seen...

Be still my beating heart...

Thanks for reading.
