I Have Seen Similar (or Identical) Bezel, But Uncertain
In Response To: Don't think so ()

I have seen a similar (or perhaps identical) inner bezel, in one version of the Carrera, but I cannot recall the details. Maybe it was in one of the gold ones; manual wind; 1970's style cushion case.

In any case, I believe that this inner bezel is simply "wrong" for this version of the Carrera; the fact that it has been installed at the wrong angle (with the 05 above the 12:00 position) doesn't help the situation at all . . . and what about the dial / hands / etc.?? I see a part bin, somewhere in the background!!

Bottom line: This one just doesn't look right, with the first clue being the off-center inner bezel.

I agree with Alistair that this is a nice version of the automatic Carrera, at least if you don't need the third register, to record the hours!!

: Wrong scale printing and it should be dark in colour matching the stripe. Best version of the auto Carrera in my opinion though!

: Cheers!
