Yes, the Verona is very much the "dress" to the Carrera's "sport". The case is a mildly different shape, though, particularly noticeable around the lugs.
I can only recall having seen these on straps. The last one I saw was one with the grey dial and the all-steel case, and I was quite taken with it - if I ever decide the Carrera collection is "done", a 110.213 G would be one Heuer I would consider buying.
Really nice watch Stepan - my vote would be to wear it on a nice black croc strap, to emphasise the dress nature of the watch, rather than going for a sporty perforated one.
