In Response To: Meanwhile, Over on FB, Eric Wind Shows Us an Amazing Watch ()

Thank you so much, Jeff! The case corresponds with the reference 406 shown in the 1945 and 1946 Heuer catalogs, but the catalogs depict a watch with a black dial. The watch has pushers with rounded caps and a case in the same shape as the catalog. The 1946 catalog also mentions a reference 407 that is 250 CHF whereas the reference 406 is 250 CHF, so perhaps my watch could be either one.

By the way, my watch has a Landeron 13 movement.

Here are the pages in the catalog:
