Re: Follow-up on my Autavia 3646 Tachy

Hi Shaun,

: [...]

: The bezel shape looks correct for a 2 execution case, which this
: watch seems to correspond to. This execution case had a bezel
: with the close serrated edge as on your watch.

: For example:

Thanks for your confirmation.

The side views of my watch show that the bezel seamlessly continues the profile of the case middle part.

: I don't have a strong opinion on the bezel insert - it is true I
: have never seen a Heuer 13-24 H bezel insert before, it is quite
: strange.

Could one identify a genuine Heuer bezel insert from the backside? Should we see a manufacturer's mark?

We will have to wait until other pieces appear, either bezel or complete watch. Printed material would be great, too.

Cheers,

Mick
