Timekeeping being affected while the chronograph is running indicated that it probbaly needs a clean/oil/service. The extra load of driving the chronograph works should not significantly affect the timekeeping.
Crown is wrong.
Dial and hands are quite tarnished.
It's a nice looking watch. The Heuer logo on the dial may make it more expesive than a watch that's technically equal.

I've been a slight lurker on this thread and am wanting to get a mechanical watch again, so would appreciate any advice, should you guys be able to help. I'd like a vintage mechanical watch but other than that not too fussy, just something to get me on the ladder and to pos trade upwards.
Any advice on the below: value, condition and the choronograph issue? (having the chronograph running affects timekeeping)
