Re: Heuer Super Autavia GMT
In Response To: Heuer Super Autavia GMT *PIC* ()

At $2799 this was a lucky buy-it-now by one of our forum members.
Naturally he has the right to ask whatever he chooses as a re-sale but ultimately its only worth what the market is willing to pay. I am no expert in the dash pieces but i'm aware these 24 timers are quite a bit rarer than the standard 12 hour models. I would estimate a sale price somewhere less than 50% the current asking price.

A question in general -
Is it correct to refer to this as a GMT model ???? I see no possible way to display a second time zone. I think the seller has seen the red / blue inner bezel and jumped incorrectly to the conclusion this is a GMT function.
