Very Informative re Monnin / First Heuer Dive Watches
In Response To: Try here for starters Jeff ()

As always, excellent information and photos from Stewart.

So Monnin produced these first dive watches for Heuer. Am I correct that Monnin made the cases (and probably had one of the traditional suppliers produce the dials)? Or do we believe that Monnin also ordered the cases from another firm, and was merely the "assembler" of the watches?

Which of the Reference 844 dive watches are by Monnin?

Thanks,

Jeff
