Forumet kommer nu bli ännu snabbare, mer lättanvänt och framför allt fyllt med nya funktioner.
Vi har skapat en tråd på diskussionsdelen för feedback och tekniska frågeställningar.
Tack för att ni är med och skapar Skandinaviens bästa klockforum!
Ja precis, jag spanade där innan jag slog till på bukten! Insåg allt för sen att det var fel visare, men priset jag betalade gör att det är helt okej. Vad tror ni om tillgången på visare egentligen? Någon som har tips på vart jag skulle kunna finna dessa? Klockan är perfekt storleksmässigt, och tavlan är lite grusig men ändå skarp i tryck. Min första Heuer och jag gillar den skarpt

Håll span på chronotrader och lägg ut en WTB. Skicka nått mejl till Heuerboy och Stewart på Heuerville så kanske dem kan peka dig i rätt riktning. Priset på dessa ligger rätt lågt och det har mycket att göra med att man har ett Felsa verk och att man körde en typ av licenstillverkning med aquastar.
Kul att du gillar den, hoppas du seglar eller nått så du får prova den på riktigt

Tack för hjälpen, jag ska kika runt lite ikväll och försöka få tag på rätt grejer! Jag äger ingen båt, men jag vann den faktiskt medans jag höll på att förbereda polarens segelbåt inför sommaren Bra timing
I am not sure how I getting in this swedish thing and not really sure how old this post is, but I found a Heuer Aquastar that needs help
And I found Darren posting so it can´t be the wrong forum.
Virrooo, congrats to a very rare Heuer Aquastar. The hands are wrong on the Regate. I can ask a man having some hands. Does it works? Mostly on this Regate with Felsa 4000N the driving wheel is broken... It´s a modification Aquastar did to the Felsa 4000N, without numbers of parts. 2 Special wheels. I found one for my Aquastar with the same problem.
You can give me an email via my site www.heuerchrono.com . My friend Mark describes the most on his site regatta-yachttimers.com, you can see the wheels there.
Hopefully I am right with my words, doesn´t understand and translate all of the posts before

Hi & a good weekend to all. I felt like sharing with you a nice photo of a favourite watch.
The details,
1962 Heuer Autavia 2446 with a Valjoux.72 movement.
This is the very first execution of the famous series. Its most clearly identified by the 3 largerer white registers & the Dauphine hour & minute hands.
As rare as the Dauphine hand Autavia's are there is the even rarer first of the first model that have the fully lume coated Dauphine hands. These fall within a very narrow range of serial numbers & have a movement number stamped into their bridge. There are a number of other fine details from the first series such as the 4mm pusher caps & the round tipped crown.
Very few survivors or these early executions are known ( maybe 8-10 in total )
They were only offered on a leather strap from 1962-65
I have paired my example to a double rice grain bracelet from Gay Freres which were first available for tbe 2446 Autavia from 1965.
This is a grail watch for any Heuer guy, i love it & use it regularly. As far i'm concerned this watch will come off my wrist & pass on to my son one day.
Thankyou Karatekid.
Yes the bracelet looks great on the watch, it is the standard Autavia bracelet for the earlier screw back Autavia's so naturally it looks just right . Its just so hard to find one of these bracelets !!!
Its not just the cost of them to consider, those that have them just wont let them go.
The earliest Carrera's use the same bracelets (albeit with different size endpieces). The Carrera collectors went crazy buying up all the stock of double rice GF bracelets about 7-8 years ago & now they are near impossible to locate.

Well, I can understand that. There is no better looking bracelet/strap combo on that watch or the 2447 carrera imho.
What would the price tag land on for that bracelet? I'm starting to think that perhaps a 2447 should be my next watch but they are quite expensive and there aren't really many to choose from..

I seriously doubt that anybody would object to you contributing with your knowledge and nice watches. And if people will learn that you you understand Swedish, nobody will feel insecure when writing a reply if they can do it in Swedish.

I saw the movie Le Mans at a drive-in cinema in Australia when i was young ( at a guess it was about 1978 so the movie wasn't a current release - i think it was a second feature after a James Bond movie ). Now at that young age the watch on Steve McQueens wrist didn't have any impact on me BUT the close quarters, realistic racing was just the action a 10 year old was ready for.
Imagine my surprise all those years later when i started collecting vintage watches that i discovered the link between a movie i saw as a child and the iconic blue Monaco i had begun to lust after.
Well it was fate really & so began my passion for this all time classic chronograph.
Here we have a time line of the classic Monaco.
The first one with the mottled brown dial is a prototype called the Chronomatic. It seems that the original paint of the dial was not done right & we have this "paintless wonder" effect. These Chronomatics are incredibly rare, they are the from the very first issue back in March 1969 which are recognised as the worlds first automatic chronograph.
The middle Monaco is what we refer to as a Transitional Monaco. It retains the squared stainless steel hands of the Chronomatic series & the metallic blue paint on the dial. By this stage in later 1969 the painting process of the dial had been mostly sorted. We do see paint problems come up with them now so to find one with a faultless dial is very pleasing. As you change the angle of the watch to yourself the metallic dial flares & changes colours from deep deep blue to bright light blue - very impressive indeed.
Finally on the right we have the standard production Monaco. This is the same type Steve McQueen wore in the movie Le Mans. The production version no longer had the metallic finish on the dial. The hands we changed to the brushed, red tip version. In the above photo i have it on a type 2 bracelet but Steve wore his on a black leather (or Corfam) strap. I think the overall pleasue of this watch is improved if you wear it on a nice leather strap.
Its a wonderful tactile feel to contrast the hard, sharp edged steel case against the warm soft living feeling of a nice rally strap.
Here's a combination i think works - production Monaco on a quality dark rally strap
Hope you guys enjoyed this read, it was fun for me to put my thoughts down.
Cheers - Darren
