Re: So What is a "Bullitt" Case??
In Response To: So What is a "Bullitt" Case?? ()

Jeff,

There has been four execution of cases for 1163:

- From serial 141000 there is the earliest Chronomatic case, with less pusher integration.
- Around 142000-143000 there is the 'Bullitt' case (because Pier discovered that), similar to the later Schmitz, with differences in the little balls retaining bezel rotation and stepped caseback.
- From around 144000 we have the standard well known Piquerez
- From 270000 (cases marked 1163V) we have the well kown Schmitz

It has been several times matter of discussion...
