Re: New Arrival!! Autavia 2446 All-Lume Markers

: Hi Jeff, great find. I've always wondered about the Tachy bezel. Here is my find 3 years ago. Same bezel. I guess these were sort of transitionals or produced for a limited time as I hardly see these on the 2446. I have since upgraded it with a NOS bezel but kept the original bezel for posterity.

New arrival, less than an hour ago . . . One of the mysterious
: Autavias, with all-lume markers.

: Over the last few hours, I had imagined some sort of fancy
: "reveal" or introduction, but I just can't wait!! It's
: Friday; we have the "Watch You Wearing" thread going .
: . . so here it is, the one I am wearing today!!

: Bracelet seems to be correct for the watch (4th quarter 1965, with
: HL endpieces); based on a quick review, finish on the case
: appears to be original; needs a crystal; needs the correct hands
: . . . Still, thrilled with this one!!

: Wishing everyone a great weekend!! And don't give up on the eBay
: searches . . . there are still a few of the "barn
: cars" / "sock drawer" watches!! Just for fun,
: I'll also post a couple of the eBay photos, below my "quick
: and dirty", just out of the box shot.

: Jeff
