FS: STUNNING AND UNTOUCHED HEUER AUTAVIA 1563 MH PLEXI

Hi,
I just bought this watch but because I had the chance to buy another fabulous ( but a lot more expensive ) Heuer Autavia this one must go.
So up for sale is this fantastic Heuer Autavia 1563 MH.

The best about this watch is that it is not only completely original and untouched but it is also one of the brightest Autavia's with orange accents I have seen.
You will see in my pictures that the orange is very vibrant. Well I can guarantee that in real it's even more bright.
That typical fluo orange is almost impossible to capture on camera. We all have had that experience.
The 3rd picture gives a pretty good idea of how the orange looks in real.

Please do not only look at the hands and the orange trim in the minute recorder but also have a good look at the orange on the steel hour indices.
When you look up pictures of the 1563 MH you will see that the orange paint on these indices has almost always faded.
On this watch these hour indices look like new.

Watch has all the original parts, has an unpolished case and the lume on dial and hands is 100% original.

So fabulous dial with all the original tritium ( see last picture taken under UV light ); no stains or scratches.
Orange accents extremely bright.

Case is unpolished with the sunburst effect in great condition and the bevelled edges very sharp.
Case has the normal hairline scratches for normal use but nothing major. In real this case just looks great.
Case-back very good with no scratches from bad case openings.

Original plexi in very condition.
Original MH bezel with a lume dot in the triangle at 12 o'clock.
Bezel is turning very crisp.

Mechanically the watch is working 100%; keeping very good time; great power reserve;
chrono working as it should. Pushers are very crisp and clean. Movement is super clean.

Model: Heuer Autavia 1563 MH
Serial: 245xxx
Movement: Heuer calibre 15

Let me finish buy saying that this 1563 MH in this condition is not easy to find; please do not confuse the 1563 MH with the later 15630 MH ( which has a mineral crystal ).
I am looking for a quick sale and pricing the watch really very sharp.

Price: "head only": 4300 euro ( insured shipping included )
option: different kind of straps can be offered: authentic corfams, Bulangandsons straps, rally straps etc

( I give a full refund in case of any problem or if the watch would not be as described )

Best regards,
Bernard
