Re: An Interesting Autavia
In Response To: An Interesting Autavia ()

Hello,

trying to summarize:

these are definitely second execution cases, because of their serial numbers.
I've seen first ex. case up to 65000, while in the 80000 range the case was only second ex.

Bezel should be the thinner one, with no tritium triangle, the one we always see in the last exec. cases.
The showm bezel seem a service one to me.

About hands, i've often seen the 2nd. ex. dial with dauphine hands in the range 80-85000,
so it shoud be possible that the these dial match the dauphine.
We will not know the answer until we find an unmolested sample!
