Here's the "Orange Boy"
In Response To: Re: looking for orange boy gulf stat. info ()

The so-called "Orange Boy" has the following key features:

  • Autavia 1163
  • brushed steel hands, with orange inserts and tips
  • orange accents on the dial -- hour markers
  • dark orange needles on the chronograph recorders
  • orange stripes on the minutes recorder
  • bezel can be Tachy or Minutes / Hours.
Yours is a nice looking Reference 73463 . . . but not an "Orange Boy".
