Hello,
I am interested to buy this Heuer "Economy series" but uncertain if real (fully or partly) and also if any more facts about it.
- Read earlier post on the forum that Heuer never had the jewels/rubis stated on the dial but also a read this post http://www.onthedash.com/thoughts/the-search-for-fab-suisse-case-closed/
"Once upon a time, collectors of vintage Heuers used to say that Heuer dials were not supposed to include extra letters or words on the dial to indicate the number of jewels (for example, 17 rubis), or that the watch was shock-proof or used the incabloc shock-proofing system...."
This indicates there are Heuers with that on the dial, are there new facts on that topic e.g. jewels and Incabloc on the dial?
- Have search the web and only found pictures of the Ref. 741-1 with Champion logo.
http://www.onthedash.com/Guide/_Chronographs/70s_Chronographs/Reference_741-1/
Can this be a similar model w/o the logo?
- Is it S/S or chromed case? Backside shows some small dark dotes, can these occur on a S/S?
- Valjoux 7734 movement says the seller.
For pictures please go to link on flickr (could not add it in the URL field, sorry):

An indication of price level/range would be appreciated if it is real.
Thank you very much!
Heurol
