He does sell heuer on n off so have to ask him thru email.he gt heuer catalog n fakes category ,worth a read cos I learn some from him thru email n his site. Need to research a lot to determine 100% original as heuer has made few variation for some similar model,like dial variation,logo size that changes thru e yrs,movt used,movt plate correct or nt,bezel original.... But nt much prob if u buy from veteran heuer watch collector. Seiko for me bz riao....

Oh yes, very true of what you said. If you look close enough, this watch of mine is not 100% original. The small hands are not correct. Bezel and dial should be fine. Movement wise, I have yet to pop open the case (shit)

Maybe you can help me check on my watch?

hmm think OT in the heuer autavia thread liao ar.. start another one.
piaseh to matt bro =)

*just my last few points.

ATC does have a lanco and few other similar 7733 vintage seventies(or late sixities) chronos. They kinda like micro brands that either collasped during quartz boom and quality is so-so(certain ones are pretty rough in case finishing). Size I seen varies from 38mm to max 42mm without crown but mostly 38-40mm exclude crown. So with crown is like 42mm riao. 7733 movt as usual ,so its a general eubache chrono movt for that era,used by many companies.

the problem is that there are many nos lanco dials around , and also many nos unsigned 7733 cases. yes they do fit well but no they do not belong together originally. Add on the fact that many lancos after the ssih merger have unsigned crowns/ casebacks , and you have a tough time telling which is original
