    Hello! I recently acquired a Heuer caliber 15 Monaco, a 1533G. It needs some hands. Is the seconds hand and hour hand for this watch the same as those that are found on other caliber 11, 12 and 15 Heuers? Comparing it to my Viceroy Autavia’s hands, the hands do look the same as the one hand I have on the Monaco. Let me know, and I’d be grateful if anybody has an idea of where I could pick up the hands?

    No - though they have similar designs, the Monaco hands have wider lume plots than the red inserts.

    Ah, Interesting! Question, what about the running seconds hand and the chronograph seconds hand? Are those common parts or unique as well?

    The running seconds hand will be shorter than the chrono hands on the Cal 11/12. The chrono seconds hand may have a different length, I'm not entirely sure on that one. Could be worth a shot.
