FS: Decimal Bezel for Rare Autavia 1163 11630 Orange Boy etc

Greetings all,

I am considering selling a superb condition bezel for the Heuer Autavia 1163 and 11630 Orange Boy model. This suits the rare and valuable late series Autavia's - many so called Orange Boy's I see seem to have a decimal bezel. Make no mistake, it's rare.

Some years ago I acquired a cache of parts from an old Heuer dealer - this bezel came from this stash. NOTE: if it has ever been on a watch it was for a very short time and is in excellent original condition. Note it even has the corresponding original clip retaining spring on the underside of the bezel. I'm not calling it NOS but it's pretty damn close. The teeth on the edge are sharp to the touch and at close examination of each and every tooth there are no dings or scratches on any.

Note the correct fonts on the bezel of the flat 4, the 7's serif etc. Search here for 'decimal bezel' and 'Orange Boy' to compare and verify it's correctness.

It is mark, scratch and dent free as you'd expect from a near unused piece. Let me know if you need more pics or measurements I'll happily oblige.

This is a very rare opportunity to buy the perfect bezel for your very valuable Autavia.

Method of offering: AUCTION: I'll be auctioning & accepting offers over $US2000- final payment will be converted into AUD at time of purchase. I'll ship trackable and insured at buyers cost, allow $50. Paypal is fine if gift or if 4% fees paid and $A sent. I'm a longstanding OTD member from the early days of Jeff setting OTD up and can provide references !

Cheers
