used Heuer

Enthusiasts of mechanical chronographs didn’t always have it this good. Today’s market offers countless varieties, from affordable entry-level models to highly complicated in-house models. And here’s the best part: We finally have a variety of movement prototypes again, restoring the diversity of calibers once decimated by the quartz crisis and the subsequent unprecedented industry consolidation.

The story of the Heuer Autavia 2446C GMT goes hand in hand with the history of Heuer as a chronograph pioneer in the 1960s. However, the Heuer name obviously dates back much further than that. The Heuer Watch Company was founded in 1860, making it both a legendary and historic Swiss brand. Nowadays, the brand is most well known for its sports chronographs from when Jack Heuer was at the helm of the company in the 1960s.
