Here is one of mine, Carrera cal.11 - Abercrombie & fitch.
This one is completely original and has only been cleaned up no re casing etc. Like almost all of these Carreras if you look at the printing with a loop it ain't exactly perfect, maybe the dial was a difficult surface to print on to... The Abercrombie logo is a bit 'all over the place' as is consisitent with a few I have seen. The paint used is exactly the same and has the same aging as the original Heuer printing. I think Heuer just wacked the logos on for Abercrombie & fitch.
Anyway it has the same hands, sub secs. register quadrants but different tach ring so maybe start gusessing again or is this just another Heuer anomaly?
Also i have just realised that the tach 60 is not lined up with 12 o'clock, back to the menders with this one then.Lol!
