Property of the Original Belgian Family
Bought new by the
father of the consignor
in Belgium, he would
wear the watch on rare
occasions only, which for
a HEUER is rather unusual,
but has contributed
to its excellent state of
conservation. The dial as
well as the bezel show
almost no wear and the
case displays a wonderful
bevelled edge always
lost when polished. An
excellent example of the
first automatic SKIPPER
made by Heuer.
