Thanks Jeff for the infos ...

: Great to see this one . . . here are some key points: Introduced
: around 1968, around the time that Heuer first used the V7730,
: but this version had a short production life, as it was soon
: replaced by the Autavia-cased Skipper (Ref 7764) Valjoux 7730
: movement, modified so that the minute counter rotates once in 15
: minutes (but notice the jump every 30 seconds; unique among the
: Heuers) Heuer Reference is 7754 (as shown below), but it uses
: the same case as the 7753 Carreras [we see this same anomoly
: with the later ones, 7764 Skipper is in 7763 Autavia case]
: Thanks for posting this one; what a fun watch, that we don't see
: very often!!
