Description
Vintage men`s Heuer Regatta wristwatch with grey PVD case and bracelet. Grey Heuer dial with black Arabic numerals. Uni-directional rotating bezel with luminous triangular marker. Swiss made, automatic self winding movement with the colored indicator disks for the countdown chronograph. The disk colors are blue, red, and grey. Water resistant case up to 100m. Heuer bracelet has an expansion clasp and flip lock. The approximate diameter is 42mm. Accompanied by Heuer box. The stainless steel case back has some superficial tool marks otherwise the watch appears to be in unworn condition as evident by the pristine condition of the PVD coating on the watch and bracelet. Running at the time of inspection, however not checked for accuracy. An overhaul is always recommended for used watches.
The Heuer Regatta model watches were specially conceived for regatta races. The clear visualized count-down by colored disk code, is ideal for instant read off time remaining before the start. The five blue disks will appear at the first cannon shot (10 minutes before actual start), 1 minute per blue disk. As each minute passes, the blue disks will gradually become red. At the 5 minute mark with the second cannon shot, the disks will all be red. And as each minute passes, they will gradually become grey. With one minute to go, only one disk will be red and as soon as it turns grey the race will start.
