Footnotes

  • The inside of the case back and the bridge on this particular Autavia are signed "ED. HEUER & Co SWISS". This was the company's registered name prior to the 1964 merger with Leonidas, after which it officially became Heuer-Leonidas. Production in this configuration was only between 1962 and 1963.
