There is an Orange Boy at the Aaron Faber gallery in New York City and they do ship.

: Hi All -

: I know I'm new around here, but I've been reading the boards in
: great earnest for some time now, and am finally ready to take
: the plunge into the world of vintage Heuer chronographs. Like
: many people, I was initially attracted to Heuers by the Monaco,
: but realized after trying on a few at various dealers that the
: large tank case was not for me. However, I couldn't get the
: classic styling and unique colors out of my head, and the Heuer
: marquee has become a symbol I've aspired to wear.

: When I learned of the Autavias through this board and a-p-e's site,
: I knew this was the watch for me. It combined the classic but
: somehow unconventional looks of the Monaco dial with the more
: wearable (for me, I mean) conventional shape and of course the
: legendary Heuer logo. I've tried on a few at vintage shops in my
: area, and I remain convinced that this is the watch I'll wear
: from now on.

: With that in mind, I've been looking for a good (if not great)
: example of the "Orange Boy" model, with orange
: highlights, hands, and hour markers, and specifically with white
: subdials. I'm more concerned with a well-serviced and functional
: movement than I am with a flawless case, crystal, or bezel, and
: a bracelet is not necessary at all.

: I know I may be looking for somewhat of a rarity (I honestly have
: no idea), but I'm asking those of you who may have one tucked
: away among other chronos in your watch drawer to consider
: whether it might be worth parting with if you know it will be
: proudly and happily worn on the wrist of a new inductee into the
: Heuer Chrono fan and owner's club.

: If not, well, thanks anyway for the great information, excitement,
: and comraderie your posts throughout this forum bring daily!
