Re: Im not a watch guy.. I have a Monaco, but thats it and anymore than that
If your Monaco is vintage/original (pre-TAG), you ARE a "watch guy"! Fine examples are selling for 5 figures.

The Heuer has the name, but the Certina has an incredibly engineered case.
The machining on the metal band and the mechanism to swap the bands/fobs is very unique. The clasp adjustment is excellent. The titanium nitride coating is also nice.
As a teenager I spent a few weeks one summer helping out with watch repair at a family friend's jewelry store. I found that what a fun hobby wasn't as fun as a job. Funny how that still holds true... It did give me a good appreciation of fine timepieces though.
Personally, I use a Citizen titanium Eco Drive Perpetual Calender watch every day. It is tough, light, water proof to 200m, has a simple face, never needs a battery, never needs to be set and doesn't need to be put on an automatic winder when I'm not wearing it. If I need another, you can find them on ebay all day long. The perfect watch IMO.

Heuer Audi Sport Watch
Hi Guys/Ladies
I've gotta say, I am a proud owner of one of these watches.
Heuer Audi Sport, that was circulated in the early 80's
It still keeps amazing time, has been serviced a few times over the years,and last time, i got i fitted, with the new style, scratch resistent glass, Tho I do have a brand new spare glass + seal, old style, and still has the orignal strap, but no box
Most of the pics, i see, dont show the old glass, which gave it a raised looked, as the glass stuck out about 3mm.
It is available for offers
