How We Service a Vintage Heuer Regatta Watch Circa 1970s

Vintage Heuer Regatta

In 1967, Heuer began partnering with several sailing teams and became the official timekeepers of the 12-metre class yacht Intrepid. When skipper Emil Mosbacher won America’s Cup in 1967 and 1968, a special edition Heuer/Aquastar Regate with ‘Intrepid’ added to the dial was given to only the crewmembers, making them extremely rare!

Finally, in 1983, Heuer released their own Regatta Chronograph timepiece which was powered by the Lemania 1345 movement, known to be of better performance than the Felsa movement. This first true Regatta model by Heuer came in two editions.

The first had a silver dial and steel bezel with steel screws locking it in place and a steel bracelet (ref. 134.500). The second edition featured a black dial and a gold-plated bezel with steel screws locking it in place on a steel bracelet (ref. 315.505).

Now, many aren't aware of how the regatta countdown feature is actually applied during races. Prior to takeoff, sailors get a 10-minute countdown which is distinguished by two cannon shots. On the first cannon shot, sailors must press the pusher located at 2 o’clock to begin the countdown. Gradually, the discs begin to turn blue from left to right, each blue circle indicating an elapsed minute.

Once all 5 discs have turned blue, the first 5 minutes have passed. As the countdown continues, the discs begin turning red as the last 5 minutes of the countdown comes to an end. Once all five discs have turned red, sailors should hear the sound of the second cannon which indicates them to GO!

Gray & Sons - Top Watch Repair Center For Vintage Watches

The watch repair we will speak on came from a customer looking to sell his watch to us. The watch was not in working condition, it was missing a screw, and had several deep scratches along the case and the bracelet. Every watch that Gray and Sons Jewelers buys to sell must first go through our workshop department to assure it is resold in pristine condition.

First things first, we open the case back of the watch and look for any rusted or damaged parts that need replacing. Once we’ve diagnosed the problem on the watch and know what extra parts are needed, our watchmaker takes apart the watch piece by piece and prepares it for cleaning.

The movement, crystal, and watch stem is separated from the head and bracelet. The case and bracelet is given to our head polisher while our watchmakers begin working on the movement. Piece by piece, our watchmaker begins dismantling the watch’s mechanism evaluating every piece.

Once the watch parts that need replacing are identified, our watchmaker prepares the standing parts to be cleaned and sources the parts that need to be replaced. We use six different cleaning solutions in an ultrasonic machine to make sure all dirt, dust, and dried oils are extracted from every crevice within the watch parts.

Once the watch parts are cleaned, the watchmaker starts to reassemble the movement while adding lubricants wherever designated and replacing all the gaskets for water resistance. This tedious process usually takes around 1 to 2 hours per watch! Ofcourse, assuming the watchmaker isn’t interrupted and all parts continue functioning.

Since this watch is from the 1970s, it is considered a vintage and collectible timepiece. For this reason, we had our polisher only clean the case and bracelet in an ultrasonic solution. In this case, the scratches on the watch not only show its history, but it also adds value to the watch since its still considered “original Heuer finish”.

Once our watchmaker puts together the movement and re-cases the watch, it's time for the final steps of our repair process. Prior to returning the client their watch, we must execute a final quality control process to assure the watch is running as accurately as possible.

Vintage Heuer Regatta

In this quality control, we measure the watch’s amplitude and water resistance using special machines that listen to the heartbeat of the watch and simulate a deep plunge using air pressure to check for leaks. We also check that all complications are functioning fully; in this case the Regatta countdown. If both amplitude and water test come out good, the watch gets put on our winding wheel for observation where it rotates and mimics the movement of the wrist.

With this machine we can analyze the power reserve on the watch and make sure the automatic is providing power up to par throughout the day. Our entire repair process usually takes around 3 to 6 weeks total.

Good day Dan W.,

Thank you for choosing Gray & Sons as your local repair center for your Dubey & Schaldenbrand Aerodyn Duo in the Ft. Lauderdale area.

Unlike most watch repair centers Gray and Sons like to involve our customers through the process by sending them a quick snap of the movement completely disassembled. We are old-fashioned and want to show you the work that is out on every timepiece rather than to just tell you about it. As you can see in the picture attached the movement is completely taken apart down to the smallest component. Every part will undergo a deep cleaning process using a 4 step ultrasonic cleaning machine. During this step, 3 different cleaning solutions will remove all lubricants, and prepare the movement for reassembly. Once cleaned everything will be put back together piece by piece with the application of four different types of synthetic oils to ensure longer life-span on the moving parts.

During our final quality control process we will check on the automatic mechanism to ensure the powering up of the watch and power reserve. Your watch will returned fully calibrated up to manufacturers standards. You watch repair will include a full polishing and detail on the case plus a one year warranty on the functionality of the movement.

I hope you enjoyed this look inside your special timepiece. Check with your watch loving friends to see if they have similar photos of their watches.

Good day Tony E.,

Thank you once again for giving Gray and Sons the opportunity to work on your Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. As part of this repair experience we would like to invite you into the movement of your watch.

After this cleaning process is completed and your case and bracelet are polished by our in-house polisher, the movement is ready to be reassembled.

Our master watchmaker will put your movement back together with the help of precision tools and sophisticated timing computers. Once the movement is back in place it will be calibrated to company specifications.

After this process is completed and the watch undergoes a thorough quality control, it will returned to you with a one year warranty.

Good afternoon William,

I hope this email finds you well. The service on your Rolex is in progress. As part of the Gray & Sons service experience, we would like to share with you a photo of your watch as it passed through one stage of work towards completion.
Other service providers may claim to fully and completely service your watch, but we are old-fash- ioned and want to show you the work, rather than just tell you about it. As you can see, we totally disassembled your watch down to its individual components. Movement parts will be put through a multiple-stage cleaning process that will use three different solutions to wash away all the accumulated dirt and old lubricants. We will then re-assemble your watch piece by piece, wheel by wheel, screw by screw, and apply four different synthetic oils to get the watch running perfectly.

We will do the final adjustments, automatic testing on winding wheels and, after a period of quality control, your watch will be returned to you calibrated to perform within manufacturer's specifications. You will have a two year warranty on the performance of the movement.
Based on our watchmaker's observations of your watch, the external parts such as the crystal and crown are all original and have not been altered as part of this service. No internal parts seem to require replacement.

I hope you enjoy this peek inside your special timepiece. Check with your watch-loving friends to see if they have similar photos of any of their watches.

Thank you
Pedro | Repair Manager
