Added to OnTheDash: New Version of Carrera 1158S

Memorial Day holiday here in the U.S. of A., so I finally found the opportunity to add a magnificent 18 karat gold Carrera (Reference 1158S) to OnTheDash.

This is the first sample that we have seen of a second execution 1158 S, which has the earlier style hour recorder (3-6-9-12) with the later style hands and markers. As you might expect, it is powered by the Caliber 11 movement. Perhaps we could call it "transitional", as it bridges the early and later executions. Whatever we choose to call it, we know that it's a beautiful chronograph!!

See more photos of this chronograph, in the newly-added OnTheDash Gallery.

Thanks to Paolo for sharing these fantastic photos, and for his patience, as it took me longer than I would have liked to add these photos to OTD.
