Is this really a rebranded Heuer Monaco?

Hi,
Recently connected with a seller who’s offering a number of things I’m interested in.
He’s saying that this Zuril is a repackaged Heuer Monaco.
Obviously my next step is to ask for a photo of the movement.
Thoughts?

Highly likely a "poor man's" Monaco made by Heuer. This watch has been discussed before in the TAGHeuer forum, your login & password from OF are good there.

Heuer made watches on spec for a few rebranders (Leonidas was known as a spec house and they merged- so I assume business models combined). Sears was one of the companies that contracted Heuer- it has totally screwed the market on all Sears Tradition watches as people read half the info on the web and immediately assume their Sears chrome plated diver is a Heuer.

Is that a Portuguese import stamp on the right flank of the case ? If so it’s a neat addition.
