Re: Questions regarding my vintage Carrera Cal. 15
In Response To: Questions regarding my vintage Carrera Cal. 15 *PIC* ()

Hi.

First things first, it's not a Calibre 15. The left-hand register on Cal 15s is higher on the dial - see the 1553s and 150.573s on OnTheDash.

It's most likely a Cal 12, but could conceivably be an 11.

The good news is, as far as can be seen from the photos, it looks genuine. The serial number won't be on the backplate on these Carreras, it should be engraved between the lugs on the case.

Hope that helps a bit!

Mark
