Looks all right to me, but the bracelet isn't original. Also, depending on how much is being asked, I may want to verify the lume (with a UV shot) before offering. But, if the price asked is not stratospheric, then it's a very nice example relume or not.

Thank you. Just checked the lume with uv-light and everything is ok. Lume plots on dial and hands glow and glowing goes down after some seconds in the same way...

Then I would say it is a very nice example indeed and may command a premium for that lume.

The position of the Date wheel (combined with the position of the hands) looks odd?

May urgently need a fresh service.

Looks nice though!

I may be off here... but from memory all the 3147 Datos came with unsigned crowns.

And you’d definitely want a movement shot to confirm it’s correctly Heuer signed.

Edit... and is the sweep too short ? Very hard to tell as there’s only one good shot and it’s got a nasty reflection in just the right place.

The sweep does look about a mm short, but could be the reflection. Also could have just been clipped at some point in its life, as the profile of the rest of the hand looks correct.

Will do a few more pics the next days...
Did you have a chance to get some additional pictures ?
