Still No Heuer with "Rubis" or "Chronographe"
In Response To: Jeff, is your "Rubis" rule still working? ()


Shaun:

good question!

I still have not seen a genuine Heuer with either the word "Rubis" or the word "Chronographe" on the dial. I have, however, seen numerous no-name or low-end chronographs with these words on the dial. Watches are typically 1950's / 1960's era.

: In the fakes section, Jeff mentions that he has
: never seen a 100% verified Heuer with a
: jewel count (eg: "17 Rubis" or
: "17 Jewels") incribed on the dial.

: Jeff, have you seen any exception to this rule
: in the last 6 months? I have kept a look out
: but have not seen anything obvious to
: contradict your rule.
