Help with heuer 11630

hee guy!

Im New here. Been always a rolex guy but last time very intrested in vintage heuer. I bought a project and looking online for a subdial hand but it is really hard too find. I looked at almost all the online markets and co contacted a lot of vintage heuer watch makers. The only option Till now is back to you Tag heuer in Zwitserland. But i want the watch serviced by a friendly watch maker. So is er some one how can help me here?

I’d suggest a WTB advert on the Chronotrader board if you haven’t already.

That may be what already happened to this watch. Another possibility could be to look for other brands with chrono-matic movements like the Hamilton I'm wearing today which has what look to be identical white sub-dial hands (Nota Bene actual length not checked). But they are much scarcer even than Heuers and not that much cheaper.

There was a post on Chronotrader a couple of years ago selling a lot of 11630 parts including hands that had been replaced at TAG-Heuer. Perhaps a message to that poster asking whether the replacements were identical to the originals would give information on what original parts are available at La Chaux-de-Fonds for service. Or even ask TH Vintage Restoration directly -- for the price they charge I hope they would respond.
