Milky . . . Ghosts . . . Mirrors
In Response To: Re: Another mirror bezel ()

There are many gradations among the Heuers, circa 1969 . . . from the ones that are a little milky (like my 1163 MH Chronomatic and the Skipper shown below), to the ones that have the near-mirror finish.

Then, of course, we have the red and blue GMT bezels, but that is another story.
