He is featured in the 1974 Heuer brochure wearing the Heuer Silverstone and this as well as an outstanding 1970s design has led many to favour the vintage Silverstone as their watch of choice. Great watches from this period are often tied into iconic figures and this like the Monaco and Carrera from the Heuer stable provide ample proof of this.
