FS: Vintage 1960's Heuer Carrera 12 w/Val. 72 *PIC*

Hi all,
I'm offering for sale one of the nicest pieces from my Heuer collection. Here are the specs:

Heuer Carrera 12 circa 1960's
ref. 2447 with silver deci dial
Val. 72 column wheel manual wind movement

Period correct style black perforated strap

Original vintage Heuer buckle

This is nearly the "Holy Grail" of Heuers being the deci dial watch that the first re-editions were based on.

EVERYTHING is correct and original on this watch and it is 5x signed; caseback, dial, crown, movement, buckle.

The dial and crystal are essentially NOS and the case and crown are near mint++ having been lightly polished but still having all the crisp sharp edges.

The Val. 72 movement is clean and keeping great time with all chrono functions operating correctly.

Please note how perfectly the lume in the hands match the lume dots at the markers. This shows that neither the dial nor hands have ever been refinished or relumed.

This is a very rare watch in investment grade condition which would be the crown jewel in many collections.

I'm asking $2295 delivered in the CONUSA.
International buyers are also welcome but please add $55 for additonal shipping.

I am a long time, well known, Heur collector with plenty of TZ, OTD references and 100+, 100% feedback on e-b@y.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or requests for additional pics.

Best,
Mike
