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

Hi Aris,

Thanks for adding more pictures. Actually, if you want to make sure the booklet is correct, you can check this thread on Chronocentric about booklets authenticity:

http://chronocentric.com/forums/heuer/index.cgi?md=read;id=76283

Also, let me mention that the beta (B) buckle is not original to the watch. The legitimate one for the Viceroy is the sun buckle.
Believe me when I say that I don't want to put you on the spot. I'm just confused as I think the price you're asking is OK for a full "original Viceroy package" and that is not exactly what you're offering.

Best regards,
Luis

: Hello Luis,

: Thanks for your input.
: In my opinion it is pretty much the right shade of orange. Please
: remember that the pictures where taken with red background and
: under ordinary yellow artificial lighting with an iPhone camera
: so I guess they might appear a bit redder!
: It has the carbon pages as well.
: As I said I bought both the booklet and the box from members of
: this forum so in all good faith I believe that they are genuine
: as they were originally advertised. But just to make sure I
: checked for common spelling mistakes as they have been pointed
: out before from members of onthedash forum. I included that link
: to the description as well.
: If it is not genuine however I would be happy to retract it.
: Anyway, I feel like I have been put on the spot here so here are
: the requested pictures:
: These were taken with an iPhone camera again but this time under
: natural light on a cloudy day. It seems a bit more orange like
: that, wouldn't you say?
