Re: FSOT: Heuer Autavia 1163V (box, papers)

Hi,

Beautiful watch but price even with buckle and box seems a bit too high to me. Also, could you please show the last pages of the booklet? Cover looks very red to me and not a bit orang-y as the original ones are. Is there a carbon paper page?
If so, it's original and can be worth around $300, if not it's just a worthless copy.

Kind regards,
Luis

Hello all,

: I spent ages trying to find one and as soon as I got it, it just
: did not click with me. Hold on to it for six months in case this
: changed but unfortunately it did not!
: For sale or trade I have an 1163 viceroy autavia.
: The watch is in very good used condition.
: It still retains the original starburst finish and the bevels are
: very crisp.
: The watch is all original with signed heuer crown and recessed
: pushers.
: The pushers are fully visible from both the front and the back
: meaning that this is a Schmitz case. Being the earliest
: automatic reference means that the case is only 13mm thick so
: the watch can easily underneath a handcuff!
: The bezel, crystal dial and hands are in very good condition.
: The watch runs great and resets as it is supposed to and everything
: returns to zero. Pushers are very clean and not sticky at all.
: Movement is the caliber 11i.

: The box was bought from a member of the forum and it has all the
: features mentioned on this post regarding originality:
: http://chronocentric.com/forums/heuer/index.cgi?md=read;id=81904

: The papers are open (unsigned) and its the more rare booklet with
: the 5 languages. Also bought from a member of the forum. Colour
: seems good and without the common spelling mistakes! Some
: explanation here:
:
: http://www.chronocentric.com/forums/heuer/index.cgi?md=read;id=72656

: The Heuer buckle is genuine Heuer with a capital B on the back,
: according to my research this is a more modern reissued one also
: by heuer.

: Anyway, I am mostly interested to trade rather then sell this one.
: I am mostly interested on the following two watches:
: - Tudor big block, 79170, in good condition with box and papers
: - Zenith de luca, last generation with black dial, silver subdials
: with box and papers

: However, if you have something along the lines of the mentioned two
: models please feel free to contact me.

: For a sale I would be looking for around £3000 especially when
: considering that this one comes with box, papers and buckle
: rather than head only.

: I am located in the UK.

: Anyway, enough words, here are the pictures:
