: Hi Luis

: The watch is correct and until about a year ago this version
: (automatic Calibre 12) had never been seen before.

: The Autavia with numeral hour markers sometimes referred to as the
: "Shauntavia" has always been an oddity. They never
: appeared in any catalogue and over the years, the odd sighting
: stimulated debate about originality. Then we saw a few two
: register + date manual wind versions reference 741.603 that seem
: to pass all the community’s tests to be considered original.
: Here is my example:

: Then we "discovered" the three register version reference
: 73663 with all the same dial hallmarks as a standard 73663 but
: the addition of this unique dial design. Here is my example:

: and the two together:

: Then about a year ago all three (741.603, 73663 & 11630/11063)
: popped up for sale right here. They were all in well used
: condition and were signed KAF – Kenyan Air Force. Since then
: we have seen one or two other 11630/11063’s pop up and I
: believe they were also KAF signed. Now this example which I
: believe was a great buy at that price. I looked closely at this
: watch but held back simply because the dial looked to have some
: damage – poor seller images and description and no sign of the
: KAF engraving on the back.

: I am sure we will see more of this one and other in time to come.
: Obviously I am a big fan of these and so to are other on here
: including Shaun after whom the name Shauntavia was coined.
