: Hi Jeff,

: as an expert in autavia (not only siffert) here my comment:

: If you guys start segementation into mark 1-6 categories, I would
: do 7 rather than 6: here would be mine: the one with silver
: hands and thin dark blue inlay is the rarest of all
: sifferts..after seppi one. the question is, was this now
: produced with both V's? I have only seen with narrow V. I have
: seen 3 pieces (out of 50 in toal :-) of this version: ALL big
: block dial.....
: so its

: mark 1: Seppi
: mark 2: big block, steel hands narrow V
: mark 3: big block, steel hands narrow V with blue inlays: for me
: similar scarce than the Seppi one.
: mark 4: big block, steel hands white V
: mark 5: steel hands with black makers, 36912 with blue inlays: I
: doubt this exists: if you see when the steel hands with blue
: inlays popped up: no way for me...its a hand set often seen with
: Valjoux 72 movements: so at this time OK...but at the time of
: the black makers not in my eyes....
: mark 6: vic hands, black makers and 36912 dial: I personally doubt
: this is existing (see endless discussions)
: mark 7: vic hands black makers with 123456789101112 dial: yes this
: is most common siffert

: ---------------
: so mark 5 & 6 are "put-togethers" or serviced
: watches: whoch makes especially for the mark 5 very much sence
: as at this time no steeel hands but 35912 dial and later hands.
: ---------------

: so may be more 5 instead of 7? sure not 6 as if you would expand by
: broad V theme you even get more combinations :-)
