HEUER MONACOS:

For Restoration

1.

VERY RARE!

Black 74033

Manual Cal 7740

When I bought this watch, the blacking has been rubbed off on parts of the case. I had the case polished, and then I sent it to be refaceted and detailed by Wuischpard&Son. It will need to be re-blacked using a PVD ( Physical Vapor Deposition) technique.

I have the name of a shop that will do this.

I have heard very good reports about the procedure.

The case was opened without using the correct Monaco tool, and the tension springs were broken. Wuischpard&Son fabricated replacement springs. I have not tested these to see how they will hold with a gasket.

The movement was serviced, and I believe it is complete. The chrono bridge is slightly bent.

I have one of the smaller register hands, which is not shown in the photo.

Monaco 1533

Cal 15

This consists of a Case, a Dial(which will need to be redone), a Cal. 15 set of plates, a Heuer- Signed Cal. 15 chrono bridge, and an assortment of parts.

I believe a nearly-complete movement can be assembled from the parts. There will be extra parts which you can sell or trade.

The case was opened without using the correct Monaco tool, and the tension springs which hold the case together were broken. I had the case polished at one point. It will need to be refaceted and detailed.
