In Response To: Case seems" Wrong" ()

All,

The case/design appears to be of the '50's era however the Heuer Carrera was not launched until the early 1960's....

Some older Heuers did have the "12" at the 12 oclock position, however the pulsations outer dial and wording here does not seem correct. I don't remember any old Heuers with exposed lug holes either.....

I'd not be putting my money into this one.....if it's not in our old Heuer catalogues then I doubt is real. The lack of a movement photo is also telling....

Cheers
