Jorge,
I think there was something lost in translation - I don't think Gigi was saying that the white 11630 didn't exist.. I think he was just referring to the way we 'name' them. ie. traditionally the 'orange boy' is a 1163 cased watch. 'white boy' is another made-up name, and it's used to describe the 1163 cased version by some.
I know many on here don't like these names, as it causes confusion, like the above!

: GIGI with all respect I think you are wrong that the real
: "Orange" White are only the 1163 version.
: If you rea+d at HEUERVILLE -

: clear :
: ".. this really is something special. This is a rarity, the
: consensus amongst Heuer collectors is that there are known to be
: three 1163 white dials and five 11630 white dials known to
: collectors, so this would be the 6th. " August 25, 2012
