Re: FS: Red Heuer Cigar Style Box (Early '70s)

I'm going to try again to post some more photos.




: Heuer Red box – cigar style

: I have decided to sell this box separately. I was unsure if it came
: with the 66/67 Carrera 45 Dato or the 70/71 Carrera 12, but have
: now concluded that it was the Carrera 12 2447N. Since the box is
: stamped with the "Automatic" designation, that would
: not have been around when I got the 45 Dato. But it is obviously
: not the "correct" box for the 2447N either, since that
: is not an automatic. I've been told than Heuer was not very
: "fussy" about which watch went in which box, and I
: think this is another example of that. I got this watch &
: box direct from Heuer – New York, so there was no reseller
: involved that might have mixed up the box.

: This box is in great condition. It has been resting in my drawer
: for about 40 years. The only thing that keeps it from being Mint
: condition is the discoloration & color loss on the gold
: colored trim piece below the lid opening. I have tried to show
: this in the pictures. This small color loss is on each end of
: the box and is shown clearly in the photos. I will try to post a
: couple of the photos in this post, but there are several more in
: my photobucket alblum at http://photobucket.com/dickkr1heuerbox

: If you have an automatic and are looking for a box, this is it.
: Since I am a little unsure about the value of this box, I am
: asking for offers around the $500 range.

: For offers close to the $500 mark, I will pay for the shipping in
: the US. For foreign buyers, I will ship at my cost.

: Thank you for looking!

: PS: I can not seem to master including several pictures in this
: post. Please go to the Photobucket link above for several
: additional pictures. Thanks!

: Dick
