It is difficult to draw a bright line and determine when Heuer switched from the smooth pushers to the fluted pushers. The transition seems to have occured gradually, as various parts were used up (hands, pushers, etc.). So the pushers looked "correct" to me.

The bezel, on the other hand, is a mystery to me. It does have the "sandwiched" or two-coat effect, which I have never seen before. To me, on all these Autavia GMTs, the bezel is the single biggest factor in determining both how bright the watch looks and what the value will be.
