Collector Condition 1970 Heuer 7721N with Original Papers, Box, Receipt and 2 Heuer Service Records

The Overview

Launched in 1968, this Heuer 7721N was sold in 1970 and is untouched after a Heuer service in 2002. The steel case is in good condition but does have a lot of marks and scratches – we usually leave these unpolished but we can have it done if required. The original black Heuer signed dial is in overall excellent condition with only a few minor marks – I’ve highlighted the 2 most noticeable on the second picture. The original Heuer signed manual wind movement is in excellent condition and is being serviced by our watchmaker as I type so will be available after the 10th August. The stopwatch function works perfectly with the large second hand starting and returning to the ’12’ position. The watch sits on when we believe is a genuine black Heuer strap (not signed but it has a genuine steel Heuer buckle so we’re assuming it’s original). In terms of provenance we have:

  • The purchase receipt (we bought from the son of the second owner who bought it in 1986)
  • The Heuer warranty booklet and original paperwork – this has come apart but does have the original 7721N case back sticker
  • A Heuer service confirmation from 1984 (shows 7721M)
  • A Heuer service from 2002
  • The original box

The Movement

The original Herue signed manual wind movement is in excellent condition and is being serviced by our watchmaker as I type so will be available after the 10th August. The stopwatch function works perfectly with the large second hand starting and returning to the ’12’ position. The movement is signed ‘Heuer Leonidas SA’, ‘Seventeen 17 Jewels’ and ‘Unadjusted’. It’s also signed ‘7730’ which is the Valjoux chronograph movement.
