Re: Autavia 1563 "Exotic"; Sold in Retail Stores

Jeff,
respect is the first thing in every kind of relationship... expecially friendship!

So, in your opinion, all Volvo, Indianapolis, Champion, etc... are "not heuer" or "not genuine".

It's a point of wiew: mine is different, but I respect yours.

Hope when you'll find a "strange" piece you'll remember me!
I like these watches...

For me, is important to demonstrate that, before expressing an opinion, you have to learn and develop an argument.
But is not so important for all...

: I have reliable evidence of Reference 1563 "Exotic"
: Autavias being sold in retail stores, in late 1970s / early 80s.
: I believe these were made by Heuer.

: I do not understand any comparison with the Portuguese
: chronographs. Yes, perhaps there are some "Exotic"
: Autavias completed in recent days; I believe that Heuer
: completed many of them in the 1970s; serial numbers support this
: theory.

: Photo below is for reference only; not certified to be acquired
: through retail channel.

: Respectfully!!

: Jeff
