: Greetings: I just inherited a Heuer 1163V from
: my dad and have a few questions. I've done a
: some research to get some background on the
: watch, but it has raised some intersting
: questions in my mind. According to the info
: I've found, this model was offered by
: Viceroy cigarettes as a premium. My dad said
: he purchased the watch directly from
: Sporty's Pilot Shop in the early 70s for
: $225.00. I wonder if there were
: "Viceroy overstocks" sold in
: retail stores? Question: Was this watch
: considered water proof/resistant? I've had
: the crystal buffed, gently cleaned it, and
: installed it on a new band. It is
: "cherry," I'd like to wear it
: daily (Carefully!) to remind me of my dad,
: but not if it's too "fragile."
: Thanks in advance for any info you could
: provide.
