Heuer Chronograph Ref: 73473 Year: 1971

A rare and beautifully preserved vintage Heuer chronograph, reference 73473, dating to approximately 1971. This distinctive example features an exceptionally rare and attractive indigo-blue dial, complemented by a bold stainless-steel case and the unmistakable design language of Heuer's early 1970s chronographs.

The original dial displays a beautiful deep indigo-blue colour, a particularly unusual and desirable shade that gives this watch its distinctive character. The contrasting aged golden-tone hands and applied hour markers create a striking appearance, while the two chronograph registers, tachymeter scale and date window at 6 o'clock complete its elegant, functional design.

The watch remains in 100% original condition, with its original components beautifully preserved. Particularly noteworthy is the stainless-steel case, which has never been polished, retaining its original brushed finish, sharp edges and characteristic geometric proportions.

According to our experience, the watch has never been serviced, preserving its original condition. Despite its age, it presents exceptionally well, with the authentic appearance and details that discerning vintage Heuer collectors appreciate.
