Sooner or later it had to happen, so there I go, "thinning the herd" as Jeff says...
Selling one of my Lemania 5100's, my first Heuer Carrera in black PVD ref. 510.511.
A rare opportunity for one of the last true Heuer before the TAG takeover, a scarce but fantastic in the catalogues till 1985.
Main features
Mid-size stainless steel case covered in black PVD
Automatic movement Lemania 5100 with ca. 40 hr power reserve
Day window with quick-set
Hacking feature
Waterproof to 3 atm (though not recently tested)
Acrylic plastic glass
Cosmetic conditions
Very nice conditions overall
Case: very good, a few hairlines on the backcase is all I can see - PVD still matt and in very good conditions
Pushers and crown: a very light fading on the outer edges due to use, hardly noticeable
Dial: perfect
Hands: perfect
Glass: a chip near the border in the plastic glass at about 4 o'clock, visible in the pictures.
The famed Lemania 5100 movement is a real workhorse, with central hands for chrono seconds and minutes for optimal legibility.
The only known issue is the chip in the plastic glass.
Bought in early 2007 from a Californian dealer and used a couple of times only.
Comes with a racing DiModell black strap with holes in a dark grey, de facto new.
Neither box nor papers.
Asking 1800 EUR nett, plus shipping at cost to anywhere.
Thanks for looking.
