DESCRIPTION

The Monte Carlo (12-hour stopwatch) was introduced in 1958, as the successor to the Autavia. The Autavia's 12-hour register (at the bottom of the dial) was replaced by a 12-hour jumping disc, visible through a window, just below the center of the dial. The early Monte Carlos had three buttons, with the left button advancing or resetting the hour-disc and the right button resetting the minute and second hands. Three-button Monte Carlos all used the A. Schild 1666 movement. The two-button Monte Carlo was introduced in 1967, with the right button (pusher) resetting the hour disc, as well as the minute and second hands. The use of the Valjoux 7714 movement in these later Monte Carlo required that the case be thicker (15mm), and it is this deeper case that lead to the other dash-mounted Heuers using deeper cases, in order to match the thickness of the Monte Carlo.

It features a seconds recorder with the large hand registering 0-60 minutes, the jumping hour disc shows 0-12 hours, it has a clear luminous dial and hands. Metal black coated case, attached to a back plate. This is a rare chance to get a perfect period rally timepiece in fantastic condition.
