Heuer is one of the most iconic chronograph manufacturers in watchmaking history and has a long tradition of precision timekeeping. The present lot is a fine specimen of Autavia reference 73 663, which was introduced in the early 1970s, with a classic, three-register dial layout as the originals from the 1960s, but housed in a more substantial case measuring 42 mm in diameter. The three body stainless steel massive case with graduated bidirectional revolving black bezel has a fair conservation for a sporty watch and the back doesn’t show evident signs of wearing. It has a black dial with 3 black registers and superluminar in indexes and hands that has aged to a nice ocher color, making a wonderful contrasting look.
