Heuer Chrono by Turler

Rare Heuer Chronograph from the fifties retailed by Turler. Whilst Heuer is most famous by their 60′s / 70′s sports watches, they actually made really nice watches in the 40′s and 50′s also. This lovely steel chrono has a beautiful steel 35mm screw-back waterproof case with Heuer engraving in the caseback. The original dial with luminous markers is in great condition, sligthly aged and has the Turler signature (Swiss retailer who originally sold the watch). The original blued hands are stunning and match the blue base 1000 ring perfectly. Movement is Heuer signed with a Venus base and is working perfectly. Rare piece which is still affordable compared to the later Heuer chrono’s.

Heuer Autavia Tropical Orange Boy / Gulf

One of the rarest Heuer Autavia’s made, rarer than the Jo Siffert model and either known as ‘Gulf’ or as ‘Orange Boy’. Few were made in this configuration with black dial with white subdials & orange accents and rare decimal bezel. It’s the most desirable movement also, the famous Cal. 12 Automatic as featured in the Steve Mc. Queen Monaco. Another rare aspect is the beautiful tropic / brown dial which has aged extremely nicely over the years. The large 42mm case with #1163 seems to have never been polished and is still very sharp. As a bonus, it also comes with an original Autavia box, manual, tag and Heuer buckle. Stunning watch!
