Re: Have I Gone Crazy! A Yachting watch ;-)

That's what makes collecting them such fun, imagine Rolex collecting, "its black or white sir...blue, silver, orange, red, grey...sorry sir we don't do those!"

My only wish was that Heuer had used a diff blue dial for the Silverstone, a Monaco chronomatic/Trans dial colour would have looked the dogs...

As I just noted to Rich, this is another occasion where the
: different dial colours have an entirely different finish, as per
: the Silverstones. The very very rare silver version of these
: "yachting" Carreras has a vertical brushed metallic
: finish, rather like an 11630 Autavia dial.
