Heuer stopwatch help.

[Little Pete]

I bought this Heuer decimal stopwatch at an antiques fair this morning. The reference number on the box looks like 574 but I’m thinking it might not be the original box. Would anyone on here know how old it is, or how I could find out?
Thanks.

Ref is correct

Seem to be different similar variations of it in production for a long time as it appears in other catalogues.
A cool collectable, and in great condition

Outstanding work GCH, thanks very much.

It is an hour decimal, not a decimal. Very big difference. Decimals are useful in motorsport but hour decimals are specialised 'time and motion' study pieces.
