Thanks for that Jeff , the new browser did the trick.
Great photo Giavanvittorio, it would certainly seem that the white Autavia on Jo's wrist in this photo is not a Chronomatic model & that it seems to have a MH bezel in place. Have there ever been conclusive photo's showing Jo using a Chronomatic OR has it always been our assumption by our community that it was the Chronomatic model? I really hope that somone has a photo that shows him with the Chronomatic model on the wrist - if not one of greatest icons (the Siffert Chronomatic) could be questionable.
The one known fact is that Jo was an ambassador for Heuer and (whether official or not) sold Heuer models to other drivers etc. It is possible he is pictured wearing a watch he was delivering.
It would be interesting to hear others point of view on this.
Cheers - Darren
