Re: Rare Autavia?
In Response To: Rare Autavia? ()

i have 2 of them. they where also made with the pated bracelet. mine are mint-nos conditions.

its "just" a 11063 dial in a 11630 housing and therefore its a 20mm instead of 21 mm case. these type of jubilee bracelets for 11630 cases are used elsewehre for this watch model

: A few months ago I decided to have this Autavia serviced, it had
: been in the safe for a few years, since the 11630 case is not
: really my cup of tea, and the only reason I've kept it all these
: years, is for its sentimental value. When I got it back with a
: new crystal, I noticed how cool the dial is, it was then when I
: decided to do a little research, but I couldn't find a single
: picture of the same watch with the same bracelet.

: I sent Abel a few pictures of the bracelet, but he said he had
: never seen one like it. He said it was most likely a prototype,
: since it's 20mm instead of 21mm (11063), but then I found one in
: the Heuer Speciality Collection 1982 Catalog. Same Autavia and
: bracelet.

: How rare would you say this Autavia 11630 is?
: Would you say it's the same one as the one in the 1982 catalog?
