I collect Automatic Monnin HEUER’s.. This one get me more compliments and questions from the guys with Platinum Rolex Daytonas at Cars and Coffee…Why? Because money can’t Buy One.. There is literally not another for sale on the planet. The market will catch up to this watch.. If it said HEUER on the dial, in this Monnin Case, it’s a $4000 watch..It does not..But is certainly more rare than my 844 Monnin Auto Heuers..
