Re: Please tell me about my 2446

Hi Stewart,

Thanks for this. Mine has the screw back and not the compression back!

What do you think of the bezel insert? Any chance it's a correct Heuer one?

Cheers,
Foxy

: Foxy,
: We've been discussing the various dials of the 2446c recently, and
: managed to redefine a lot of the 'mess' around the 2446's.
: Currently on OTDs info pages, the 2446 & 2446C's are grouped
: together, with many dial variations.

: We have banged out a simplified version, and I believe Jeff is
: going to update his pages when he gets time.
: Anyway, I digress.. The upshot is that the 2446C (not including
: screw back models), has 2 dial variants. Yours is the first,
: which should have thinner sub dial hands, and a White central
: chrono hand. It also has ridged hour batons and 'plain' main
: hands. The second dial variation is the 'red' with red central
: chrono hand, thicker sub dial hands and red accents on the hour
: outer track. The hour batons are the tramline type with black
: inserts, as do the main hands.

: Hope that helps.

: Stewart
