FS: Silver dial 11630 - great condition..

A stunning, silver dial 11630 Autavia. Cal. 12, c1972-4.

Had a complete overhaul around 24 months ago, fully restored by the best in the business.. our own Mr. Court

New glass, glass gasket, all case seals, pushers serviced, full movement service, case fully refinished.

The original insert was a bit worn, so I fitted a custom fit aftermarket insert. I had to hand sand the edges for a perfect fit, remove the 'incorrect' pearl, and have the hole back covered, and then fllled. Original insert will be included. A very tiny pin prick on the dial, under the 'R' of chronograph. Stunning orange hands with a lovely bit of light fading.
Will be sorry to see this go, but I have a white dial version too, and they are pretty similar.

Worn only half a dozen times (if that) since restoration. The silver dial (vertical brushed finish) is truly amazing in daylight.. it really is something else. It is the earlier model (72-4) as the hour batons have the lume dot at the end with black fill between the tramlines. Very elegant.
Not a single mark on the case.

Offers around £2100. Comes with (aftermarket) leather rally strap (as shown in the photos). Measures c42-3mm, 20mm lugs.
Bank Transfer, delivery inc.

No trades I'm afraid.
