完整圖錄內容
Introduced in the mid-1950s the Seafarer retailed by Abercrombie & Fitch in the United States used a variety of Heuer chronograph cases modified to accommodate a pusher at the 9 o'clock position, which allowed to advance the tide indicator subsidiary register.
The last Seafarers to be manufactured by Heuer were housed in the Autavia case with a snap-back design called "Compressor'' hence the addition of C in the reference number. These models also featured a new dial design with metallic slate grey base, white sub dials and blue accents that have always been a part of the intrigue and appeal of the Seafarer.
The present example presents itself in superb condition with a pristine dial, case and MH (minute/hour) bezel. It is a wonderfully well preserved testimony of a partnership that lasted over 30 years between two leaders in their respective fields of activity.

Heuer
Swiss | 1860This iconic chronograph manufacturer has a long tradition of precision timekeeping. As early as 1882, founder Edouard Heuer held a patent for a chronograph watch; in 1887, he received a patent for an oscillating pinion, which is still in use today. These specialized timepieces have been at the heart of the firm's success, enabling the brand to be chosen as early timekeepers for the Olympics. In 1969, the company introduced their first automatic chronograph watch, the Monaco Heuer, which celebrated the Monaco Grand Prix. Other key chronograph models include the Autavia and the Carrera, all of which having become iconic models of the firm.
