yes I agree fully with this Jeff

Suppose if this derek bell exists: I would only agree on 3-6-9-12 dial with big blocks + cal 11 + MH dial + low number case

Now each and every Viceroy is a Derek Bell :-)

: Suddenly, it seems that every Autavia with a black dial is a
: "Derek Bell" (and I suppose that every Autavia with a
: white dial is a "Siffert").

: I have never been convinced that we know exactly which execution
: Derek Bell wore [perhaps the polished steel hands, MH bezel and
: the ridged markers are the defining features]; listings like
: this one will only confuse the matter further --

: . This one is a Viceroy, plain and simple!

: Of course, we believe that Siffert wore a white Chronomatic
: Autavia, and we are happy extending the "Siffert"
: label well beyond that. For some reason, the rapid spread of the
: Derek Bell name is more bothersome to me.
