Lot Essay

This Heuer Military Chronograph, issued for the Aeronautica Militare Italiana (AMI), is a fine example for the rare military issued HEUER watches. The Air Force was founded as an independent service arm in 1923 by King Victor Emmanuel III as the Regia Aeronautica. After World War II the Regia Aeronautica was given its current name. Since its formation the service has held a prominent role in modern Italian military history. Same is true for the HEUER reference 510.543 IT (AMI 6645.12.194.8642) service number – bearing the famous Lemania 5100 caliber, especially built for tool watches with an instrument appearance. A legendary movement for a legendary watch with history.
