Hello,
I am looking for a 11630 model.
I have seen them for sale on line but am not sure of the bezel detail.
Please can you let me know what the correct bezel and case should look like?
Were there different versions possible?
Thanks

Hi. There are two versions of the 11630 GMT- this watch with either black or white sub-dials. More photos here: http://www.calibre11.com/heuer-autavia-11630-gmt/

This article explains a little more- there is a later 11063 GMT which is technically also a 11630, but is not referred to in that way:

Hello,
Thank you - that is s big help.
I am interested in a watch currently for sale but have concerns about the bezel;
The blue seems too dark and there appears to be no spot of lume in the triangle at 12 o'clock. The font of the digits on the bezel doesn't appear quite right either.
I have asked the seller to clarify exact model number.
Regardless of this, from your article it seems that whichever model it is, I should not pay top money if concerned about the bezel appear

There are certainly several after-market GMT bezels floating around, so it could be one of those. The shade of blue is quite different for the 11063 vs. 11630 GMT. If you get a photo and would like an opinion, please feel free to post
