Note du spécialiste
Known as Jack Heuer’s favourite model, the reference 1158 was launched in 1969. It is deeply linked with the Ferrari Formula 1 team and the very best drivers of the era. In fact, Heuer signed a partnership with Ferrari in 1971 which lasted until 1979. As part of the sponsorship agreement celebrated drivers such as Niki Lauda, Clay Regazzoni, Jacky lckx and Mario Andretti were given a ref. 1158, earning the model the nickname “Ferrari Heuer”.
The present example is part of the second version of the reference 1158 CHN, featuring a champagne dial with black registers and a white date disc with black numerals.
