Heuer Carrera Cannot be from 1950's
In Response To: Re: ebay items ()


You refer to a listing of "HEUER LEONIDAS CARRERA 1950". The Carrera was introduced in 1964, and at this time Heuer had acquired Leonidas . . . so "Heuer Leonidas" would be a correct reference as it relates to the Carrera.

The error appears to be in the reference to "1950" . . . in the 1950's, there was no "Carrera" made by Heuer and there was no brand or marking of "Heuer Leonidas".
