    The head is removable from the case so it can be mounted in the accessories.







    This is a Limited Edition of 1 of 100 celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the Mikrograph operating at 100hz (1/100th of a second)
    Wow! Cool kit. I've always liked Heuer timers and chronographs and Omega, Minerva etc. etc.

    No, unfortunately Geoff. Purchased from my AD at nearly full retail. My wife actually picked it up and I went back in, I sorta thought he put the hard sell on her. He has a good selection of vintage pieces, and had a Jaeger Memovox, I had my eye on, and asked him if he would throw it in..., and he went for it! So, it wasn't so bad!

    It was kinda funny, I am a stickler for nice watch boxes, especially for expensive pieces! I told him how disappointed I was in the box (see Mikrograph above), and he actually contacted TAG Heuer. About a week later he received a really nice upgraded box for it! The squeaky wheel does get the grease!
