FS: Heuer Autavia 11630 - Fully Tropical & Stunning

Greetings gents,

Selling my heavily tropicalized Autavia here. This is the same watch sold as Lot 147 in Christie's Rare Watches & American Icons sale in New York in June 2017. The watch is completely stunning, fully tropical and probably the nicest example of an 11630 out there.

Here is the listing: http://www.christies.com/lotfinder/watches/heuer-a-fine-stainless-steel-automatic-chronograph-6085956-details.aspx?from=salesummery&intObjectID=6085956&sid=0697aa36-08fe-4b38-8f48-e9b4634f72be

What else needs to be said about the watch? Here are some preliminary photos, which honestly do not do the watch justice. The dial is entirely brown! E-mail me if you'd like to see something in specific.






Watch functions perfectly; timekeeping is accurate to within +/- 10 seconds a day. Case is properly marked and numbered 259,589.

The watch will come with my receipt from Christies. I paid $12928 for it. We have seen time and again that the rarest and best preserved examples continue to rise in price. I don't know if this has risen since I purchased it this year. All of that said, offers are welcome.

Payment via bank wire or Paypal gift option. I will cover insured shipping within the United States; international buyers will split shipping with me.

Thanks for looking. Cheers.
