For sale is my gorgeous Heuer Monnin 844 automatic diver. This is an early model — with the rare, first execution bezel and a low serial number engraved on the case back.

This watch was serviced by James Hyman in June of this year and is runs perfectly. The bezel does not snap to the case, however, I am missing the spring necessary to attach it. Full details below.

Dial/hands/bezel:
Gorgeous glossy black dial looks brand new. The lume plots still glow super-bright when placed under bright light. Red indices identify military time.

The hands are original to the watch. Note the sought after cathedral hour hand.

The bezel is the rare first-execution version, featuring tick marks around to the 30. It is not mounted on the watch. If you have the spring necessary or are able to fabricate it, you'll be in good shape and you'll get a good deal here.

Case:
Terrific case that I don’t think has ever been polished. Mr. Hyman cleaned the case in an ultrasonic bath.

Case back is engraved with the reference and serial numbers: 844 and 1402, respectively.

Crystal:
Brand new crystal installed during service. Flawless.

Crown:
Crown is original to the watch and winds extra tight with the installation of new seals.

Movement:
Felsa 4611A movement inside. Cleaned, oiled and regulated during service.

Band/buckle:
Watch will come on a great black and red NATO strap that matches the black/red dial.

October 2013 servicing:
As indicated, I had this watch serviced by James Hyman in June 2014. The movement was cleaned and oiled, the case was cleaned and new seals were installed.

This near-perfect Monnin is priced at $1500. If you have the bezel spring, this could be a quick flip or a watch you'd enjoy for years to come. Free shipping within CONUS; I'll split international shipping at buyer's request.

Please e-mail me with any questions.

Thanks to Jeff/CT for this space.
