Anyone own one of these? I quite like the look of them.

Hello, this web site is fantastic for information. Produced by Heuer and Leonidas under various brand names. The case is monocoque, which any watchmaker will tell you is a head-ache to service. It was also very cheaply produced, it is 'pin lever', not the most loved watch movement, so in the day was usually declared "un-repairable" by most repair shops. If you search in the forum history you will find it has a "poor" desire rateting.
Still, having disrespected it, it does have a crazy 'charm'.

Hahah Heuer/ leonidas made one version so did Sorna in “bullhead” configuration.

I had a black Sorna version years ago. It felt very very cheaply made, it made a contemporary Sicura feel like a modern Omega.
I think it was £100 give or take and frankly at that sort of price, great as a bit of a novelty… You might be disappointed if you expected too much.

I just like their retro look. Something different & eyecatching. I'll start my search despite what sounds like unpopulari ty.
