Lot Essay

The present watch is a spectacular find for collectors of automatic Heuer Autavias and military collectors generally. Originally issued to the Argentinian Air Force, the present watch is miraculously maintained its mint condition and has the mind-boggling attribute of retaining what appears to be its original box. The case back has the symbol of the Argentinian Air Force engraved on the back with the issue number below that, similar to the other range of Autavia references that were issued to the Argentinian Air Force in the 1970s.
