I can't confirm or eliminate the possibility...
Ok, here is ALEX's picture:
I think we can eliminate all Autavia's save those with black and black/dark gray subdials with a c.11 and c.12: |
Autavia | |
Case Ref. | Model Ref. | Description | Dial Colors | Movt. | Crystal | Registers/Date | Catalog Dates | Price New |
11630 |
MH |
|
Black/Black | 12 | M | two/12 hrs | 72, 74, 77, 78, 81, 82, 85 |
78-$439 72-$275, 85-980DM |
11630 |
Diver |
Diver 100 |
Black/Black | 12 | M | two/12 hrs | 81 |
|
11063 |
P (diver) |
Diver 100; round luminous markers; mercedes hour hand |
Black/ Black | 12 | M | two/12 hrs | c84 |
|
113.603 |
MH |
Black case; case otherwise identical to 11063 case (including numbers between lugs); matching steel bracelet |
Black/Dark Gray | 12 | M | two/12 hrs. | 85 |
85-1050DM |
Notes: Model Ref. -- M: bezel marked for Minutes, H: bezel marked for Hours, MH: bezel marked for both Minutes and Hours, T:bezel Tachymeter bezel. Registers/Date: shows number of registers and maximum time recorded; shows when date is included on manual wind models (All automatics: Calibre's 11, 12, 14,15, have date), The first GMT Auto is actually a modified c.11 movement, later on the c.14 evolved from the faster beat c.12 and this modified c.11.... Crystal -- Plastic or Mineral. Catalog Dates -- dates refer to catalogs or brochures, unless with 'c' before the year (c74 means circa 1974, for example...). |

Which leaves these four. However, I'd like to point out that these tables are only as complete as the catalogs and ad's we (Jeff, Bruce, Hans and myself) have. If a watch is listed on the table, we have catalogs showing it was offered by Heuer. It is very possible, considering the spotty nature of our libraries, that it this watch was offered with not only a MH and Diver's bezel, but also Tachymetre bezel, as these tables aren't "exclusionary" in nature, only only confirming what we know was offered. We know that most Micro-Rotor Autavias (save for the PVD coated models) were offered with both MH and T bezels, it'd seem unlikely that this one wasn't offered specifically or available as a special order item.
But, I don't personally know. Autavia's aren't exactly my strongest suit, and the tables were based on research between Bruce and Jeff with Hans and myself providing proofreading and me doing the Excel to HTML conversion and HTML presentation (which Jeff has been helping with the upkeep).
With our limited library of catalogs and ad's there is no way I feel comfortable concluding that this Autavia wasn't offered with a Tachy bezel, although I do not possess anything (without a lot of searching) that would confirm that it definately was.
Sorry I can't be more decisive on this, but that is the nature of our knowledge on the topic.
