Hi Chuck, Hi guys,

The watch in the link was mine and is already sold.
For me it goes without question that it is original (it was sent to Heuer HQ in Switzerland too).

IMO the tables, being of great value in many ways, are in no way complete and cannot be used as the sole criterion for the authenticity of a Heuer. Like shaun says, the "feeling" is often a better way to determine such things - at least for me.

For your information I include a picture of the manual. You will notice that it says 11630 NT.
I think N is for Noir (=Black in french) and T is for Tachymetre. In any case, although I'm not the first owner, I believe that the papers are absolutely original and they describe a version not included in the table.

Best regards
