Heuer
(and later on TAG Heuer) has a strong relationship to racing, hence the
names of their watches (Monaco, Monza, Silverstone, Daytona, Carrera
and so on). In 1975, Heuer shocked the world by introducing a timepiece with a LCD and LED combination. Quartz driven of course and operated by two separate movements. In 1977 – which was a fine year – Heuer ditched the LED display and replaced it by a LCD display as well. The LED screen was a power consuming display which probably caused a lot of reliability issues.

LED-Forever , a website dedicated to these type of watches, has put up one of the rarest versions of them all, the Heuer Chronosplit Ferrari Edition (r102.703-3) as sold in 1978. Famous drivers like Niki Lauda, Clay Regazzoni (read my ME article on this guy by clicking here ) and Gilles Villeneuve wore this watch during their racing career. Only 200 of these have been produced by Heuer, and the seller claims that only 10% is still around. The Buy Now option is enabled for no less than $9,500 USD . You must be a true collector or LCD aficionado to click that button.
