Re: Is this a new Chronomatic discovery (or not)?

Hey Rich,

Seems to be another interesting find!!

Does this dial have gold indexes or steel?? Difficult to say from that picture. It would surprise me if it was meant for an 1158...I think by the time Heuer placed the gold 1158 Carrera's into production...the Chronomatic text was already traded away to Breitling. However, could be a prototype for sure IMHO.

Script seems to be what we're used to see from genuine Heuer dials...

Cheers,
Abel.
