Re: Notice the "Discontinued" and "Replaced"
In Response To: Notice the "Discontinued" and "Replaced" ()

Jeff what really strikes me is that the Autavia 1163 MH/T was discontinued in the US in 1973 however still available in Europe until 1976.
See Dutch katalog from 1976 with the Daytona introduction attached.
I can't find the Viceroy in any price list, hence we could conclude it was only available in the US during the promotion 1972/73 ?
Very interesting post, with lots of learnings.

Cheers

: I know that you are interested in the timeline of the Heuers, and
: you seek to learn when the various models were discontinued) not
: only when they were introduced). I am sure that you noticed the
: interesting notations on the US price list from March 1973 . . .
: we see many beloved watched that had already been replaced (2446
: and 2447), others that were discontinued, meaning no further
: production (2547).

: To me, this 1973 price list is very interesting, in showing these
: transitions within the Heuer line-up . . . In terms of the
: watches being available, this is when we moved from the 1960s
: into the heart of the 1970s.
