Hello, I received this Autavia 2446 (not 2446c) from my father, he purchased it in the 60s. From Chrono24 it appears it could be the rare and highly sought after model, I would appreciate some advice from the experts in here with regards to rarity and estimated price range. Thank you kindly, we are much obliged.

That's awesome, indeed a very rare 2446 GMT. If you're interested in finding value an auction house would be your best bet.

Wow, what a beauty! 😍
I've read that less than 200 were produced and only a very few (around 10) are known to still exist today. Very rare indeed!

Yours looks to be in mint condition and with the original Gay Freres Heuer signed double grain bracelet. If you have the original box it will add value as well. This site can provide an approx. guide on the value. Prices are in GBP.

According to the site, a mint condition First Execution Autavia 2446 GMT is estimated around £52,500 - £65,000 GBP or $67,800 - $84,000 USD. Big money!
