Re: Heuer Autavia 11630 GMT - Thoughts?

Paul is correct on the bezel - the shape of the triangle is another tell, the narrow triangle belongs to the 1163 bezel.

The bezel you have found on Heuer Time is not correct for you either - it belongs to the 11063 GMT see below:

What you have is an 11630 and Paul's warning about the prospects of finding a replacement should be taken seriously - I have never seen one come up for sale on its own - and because they are so valuable if one was found it would be snapped up very quickly and trust me there are a lot of people searching for one - unless you were getting a serious bargain - I would not buy this example as the improper bezel will always be an issue.

And if you are buying from a dealer - I doubt you are getting a serious bargain.
