Any vintage Heuer experts here?

Not a 2447 but there is a nice cs3113 on Chrono24

 

I've been very lucky to find 3 Heuer Autavia's and a vintage Monaco. One of my best finds was in a Reno pawnshop where I bought a mint original 2 register Autavia for $25 and a 1936 18k Rolex Cosmograph in mint condition for $3k. That was a good day.

 

Took a bit but an auction :

When my dad passed a few years ago, I found an old Heuer chrono that was in a box of miscellaneous items. I know very little about it, or what it might be worth, but it's a very cool watch. I believe he may have bought it in the 40s when he was in Europe during the war. I have not been able to find much information. Would love to learn more about it, though.

I had it worked on by someone who is knowledgeable about the older Heuers, he did a very nice job and it runs great. A little small by today's standards, I suppose, maybe 36 mm. Band is a Squinky repro -- I found the watch on an old Speidel band -- but here are some photos. Hard to tell because of the lighting but the hands are actually a bright metallic blue.

Did your watch repair guy take those pictures? The Movement looks incomplete (maybe during mid service).

I'm not a Heuer guy but I would start looking at the 2444 per:

Yes, they were taken during the service. That 2444 does very similar, thanks!

 

The dial on that watch is beautiful!

It's a snap back watch - so you can pop the back off easily. Snap a pic, or two, of the complete movement, and it will be easier to get info.

Especially if you can see the maker's hallmark beneath the balance wheel.

 

The dial is a superb example of a chronograph with the 'telephone' minute register.
