Re: Autavia Dial !

The registers have been re done and the markers have been relumed. I think it is a silver dial from a 11630. The register hands have been badly re painted, the guy has some genuine stuff but lots of his pieces have had things done to them.

Of the watches he has,

The Monza has been painted black and the bracelet is a generic PVD with a Heuer clasp.

The Carrera val.92 1963 is BS, the case appears to be a Dato 45 case, chrono bridge engraving is maybe BS too and not slotted case back either. Never seen this case back on a Carrera.

The Early val.72 he has is also BS. bad engraving on the movement and case back.

I think this guy has gotten his hands on lots, and lots of parts and has thrown some of the watches together.

My 2 cents!
