Re: 110.573f Carrera
In Response To: Re: 110.573f Carrera ()

: Nice watch Dan, the browns and the orange accents work really well
: together.

: I really like all the 110s, the Cal 12 dials look really good in
: this case whereas the 150s tend to look a bit "light"
: on the left hand side to me because of the Cal 15's perpetual
: seconds register.

: I'm a particular fan of the 110.571 thanks to its sheer
: monochromaticness (not really a word, but I hope you know what I
: mean!). It was one of the first Carreras I bid for (and lost) on
: eBay... hmmm, maybe it's time to add a 110 to the want list! :)

Thanks Mark. I hadn't really focussed on the 571. If the PVD is in good shape, I can understand the allure--the case shape and dial really pop (if I see one I'll alert you!)
One thing I do like about the 15s is that something is actually moving on the dial. Sometimes the cal.11/12s can seem sleepy until you activate the chrono mechanism.
