: I bought the watch in april 2006 from Alpha Omega and at that time
: the watch listed for $2650.00.
: They discounted by 25% to $1985.00 + tax. As these are among the
: more attractive offerings by
: Heuer in the last decade I assume their value will increase someday
: and they are hard to find presently.

: Some asking prices I have seen for ex condition are $2250, $2100,
: $1,800, £1,795, £2,049.
: I would think $2000 is a great price.

: Here are a couple of OTD posts that were made in 2007
: about this watch.
:

: This carrera was produced in 2004 and also (some pieces) in 2005
: with a limited number of 1964. Refferring to the first Heuer
: Carrera by Ed.Heuer. I bought a new one myself last year as the
: design and colour-scheme of this model is really great and looks
: very vintage. I know here in Belgium one or two watch-shops
: which still got this model in stock! Priced around 3500 US
: Dollar. Authorized Tag-Heuer dealers. As stated before you must
: ensure yourself its not a fake one and has all the appropriate
: markings...there's one for sale on eBay. There are no pictures
: from the case-back though.

: ---------

: I wished for one of these and figured I would wait till the prices
: dropped like it did for the 1964 re-issue Carreras. Two years
: ago there were few to be found on the internet and most sellers
: wanted list price and above. Since then I have seen two sold on
: ebay for list and slightly above. All I can advise is to be
: patient and hope for a good one to appear.

: Just for fun this is a composite pic of Heuer Carreras and the
: Lancia team cars, one of which won the 1953 La Carrera
: Panamericana

The 2,049 british pound price would put the watch at 3,298 american dollars and speaking with another seller he stated he was getting offers of 3,900.00. I am trying to make a deal now and was surprised on the demand for the watch. Thank you for the info and will post any positive results.
