Hi Andy-I believe this is the 'Ref 13-1' and is shown in the 1979 Heuer catalogue-so the age could be anywhere from there onwards in reality. It tends to be a lesser-spotted model but yours appears good to my eye and with the original bracelet and PVD looking good overall, is a nice example.

Regarding the chrono reset-hopefully a service will sort that out!

Enjoy it and best of luck sorting it out,

Steve

: Hi there,

: i recently purchased this watch from a well known auctioneer and it
: arrived yesterday. I wanted to buy an affordable Heuer and like
: the stealthy look!
: It described as a PVD COATED HEUER CHRONOGRAPH BRACELET WATCH CIRCA
: 1980s and has a Valjoux calibre 7765.

: I've noticed that whilst the movement is described as 'Working at
: present' which does all seem fine-- however the minute chrono
: register moves but on reset does
: not set to zero. So my questions

: 1) Can anyone tell me a little more about this model and perhaps
: how I identify it's exact age? &
: 2) What would you do about the minute register? Should I go back to
: the auction house? Also the sales photo shoes the minute reg in
: the same position -- so I probably should have spotted it-- and
: or how can i reset myself or should I get a watch repairer to
: look and service it?

: All advise gratefully received.

: Cheers
: Andy
