Lot 12 is a particularly rare stainless steel reference 2406 Chronograph by Heuer. When in production, the reference was produced with a variety of dial and hand combinations and this watch is distinguished by its radium hands and two tone dial featuring both telemeter and tachymeter scales. Marketed as a waterproof timepiece, the watch also features a screw-down back and round pushers adding to its rarity and collectability.
