Description
The Heuer Solunar is a remarkable tool watch from the 1970s that is equipped with a tide indicator.

The Heuer Solunar 279.603 is a very rare watch that was produced in a short period between 1976 and 1980. Its rarity combined with innovative functionality and reliability makes it a coveted collector's item. On top of this, the present example impresses with its excellent condition.

The striking inner and outer bezels indicate the high tide and low tide and give the Solunar a unique look. The watch has a large 45mm stainless steel case, a double crown and a date display at 3 o'clock. A notable feature is the bilingual day of the week disc in English and French. Once you have set the day of the week in the desired language, the following day of the week is automatically displayed in that language.
