I see! So this is the prototype of the 2017 Autavia....
In Response To: Heuer Autavia Rindt ()

...with new standard issue diamond bezel and two-tone bracelet!

Sorry David-nothing constructive to add other than my 'joke' and the fact it hurts my eyes. I can't personally see why anyone would wish to mix a 1960s vintage piece with some '80s bling. Each to their own, as they say!

Best,
Steve

: I don't know if others spotted this, but last week a highly unusual
: Rindt sold within an hour or so of being listed. I saw it live
: but just couldn't decide if it was a great deal or not. If the
: latest auction results are the new normal then maybe it was a
: fantastic buy... what do others think ?

: The bezel is the obvious problem but I guess that can be fixed. The
: main reason I didn't click the BIN button was the back of the
: lugs, which appear to be gouged out to accept the endpieces of
