Description
This Heuer Autavia 11630 MH is dated to the early 70s. It has the Heuer 12 Chronomatic movement in it – cleaned and oiled and ticking strong. Cal 12. is a micro rotor movement – joint development of Hamilton-Buren, Breitling and Heuer with a Dubois-Depraz 8510 module on Buren 1281 base. Comes on the original beads of rice Gay Frères bracelet in super good condition and with all 18 links. Case is super good, all pushers and crown are original. Nothing on the watch has ever been polished and it is a good idea to keep it like it is – there are some scratches, but nothing deep. Dial is superb – looks sun-untouched, hands have aged – looking good, the lume is still strong. The bezel is the MH version in OK condition, scratch right before 12-o clock – it looks big in the pictures, but it’s not that major in real life – still it’s there. No scratches on crystal – all clear. Perfect addition to any collection.
*Some sellers are falsely advertising this model as the “Orange Boy”, please note that the original “Orange Boy” is the 1163 model, the difference being that here the hands are orange as well.
