Re: What would you do?? Seeking Autavia project advice

Jay,

For me this is a no brainer. You can probably buy a nice complete Autavia Viceroy head for less than any other Cal 11, 12, 14,15 Autavia head. It will undoubtedly cost you about as much as buying a complete watch to finish this project.

Having said that, I am not into projects and you are. Still, I would really have to have some attachment to this watch....some irrational love to think it would be good to do this.

Someone will pay good money for this movement even when you describe it honestly. It seems in good shape and it has a lot of good pieces. You would probably make out better selling the dial, the hands and the movement separately but whatever.
