Re: Last Night the Dial / Tonight the Movement

These post war - pre-Carrera Heuer's really are quite nice ! Were there any of these models made up in the 38-40 mm width range? I ask as although they appeal to me , anything under 38mm looks too small on my wrist. ( i am 1.94 m tall - i think thats 6feet4 )
My favorite's amongst these are the stainless calender model, exaclty as the picture below.

: Last night, I posted a photo of an early Triple Calendar
: Chronograph, from around 1945 / 1946.

: Tonight, I had a look at the movement, and found a very low serial
: number (500521). I am not certain that we can actually use the
: serial numbers to date these watches precisely, but it is
: interesting that the 18 karat Triple Calendar Chronograph that
: we have discussed previous was sold in May 1946, and has the
: serial number 500598 . . . so these two chronographs are 67
: numbers apart.

: I wonder whether we might be able to find the 66 chronographs
: between the two numbers!!
