I agree with Darren's assessment . . .
Serial number suggests that this is second execution screw-back case . . . the "Rindt".
But the dial and hands belong in first execution screw-back case . . . correct version of which sold for over $20,000, this past Saturday.
Uncertain about origin of bezel insert (or perhaps entire bezel), but likely not Heuer.
An expensive "project" for someone to sort out.

: Dial, hands & movement are correct. Bezel insert is not Heuer (
: some kind of after market thing ) & its not in the correct
: case range ( its the 3rd exec. Rindt range - hence the actual
: bezel outer is also not correct for a 2nd exec dauphine Autavia
: ).
: Sadly its a "bitsa" !!!
: Hope that helps you - Darren
