·Quick question to the community on Autavia 2446C mk1's - have you ever seen any that have the handset with the black paint stripe down the middle, similar to the mk2 2447 Carreras?
I know this thread would be a lot more effective with photos, but out of respect to the potential seller, I'm not going to post. (to me) the watch in question appears to be a mk1 2446C with the NS configuration, (what appears to be the) small teeth MH bezel and white sweep hand and a serial number that would support.
I suspect the minute/hour hands with the black stripe down the center are later replacements based on the serial, however the old reference table over at OTD, mentions entry C-6 with a V72 and the black striped hands: http://www.onthedash.com/docs/Autavia_Reference_Table.htm but the serial would fall before that table's referenced 145xxx entry.
Thoughts? Have you seen a mk1 2446C with the paint stripe hands? Is there a good reference photo of a 4th execution 2446C?
Thanks in advance
