HA! That is always a fear with these things. I had my dad who is an enthusiast and Heuer 'whore'. He's got he original Siffert Autavia and a slough of others.
Thanks for the positive comments.
I love the cleanness of the watch. Currently looking at some new straps... likely a nylon 'NATO' style and a db10 custom gray leather with blue stitching.

Awesome work... fair prices. Unique and original. 'Handmade' is good.
