That seller, watchgirl001 in New Jersey, has been selling old TAG Heuer "parts bin" items for quite some time. I wonder what her source is???

Heuer Carrera 'Dato 45' Reference 3147, With Indianapolis Motor Speedway Logo
https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/bring-a-loupe-28-july-2017

The seller emphasizes the provenance of this reference 3147N, which came from an estate in Indianapolis that included a lot of other Indy 500 memorabilia; its former owner worked at the Speedway during the Indy 500 race. The watch looks in better than honest condition, with the necessary aging that proves that the dial does not come from new stock. The hands are original, and have a very nice patina, which matches the lume plots. Lastly, the manual winding Landeron 189 chronograph movement is said to work well, although the pusher action is described as a bit sluggish.

Very nice Carrera. Although $65,000 seems a bit much!
