Re: CS3140 Re-Edition - Some info

Mark & Fabrizio.

Thanks for the information.

Rgds,

Terry

: Fabrizio, the first re-editions of all those models (Carrera,
: Monaco and Monza) only had "Heuer" on the dial.

: Later models, including the Carreras, added the model name to the
: dial, as below:

:
:

: If I recall correctly, the gold re-edition was only available
: without the Carrera name and only for a couple of years - the
: later solid-gold Carrera was a watch-only chronometer, not a
: chronograph.

: Terry, Heuer has quite some form in offering Carreras in solid gold
: - both the original manuals and the subsequent automatics were
: available as - rare - solid gold models.

: I'm very proud of my 70s 1158 in 18K:

: We've recently seen some of the gold manuals too (photo courtesy of
: Michael G):

: So there is some good history for Heuer to build on for the
: re-edition. I always thought it was a shame they didn't add
: "Heuer" to the dial but I suppose that prevented
: people passing them off as vintage.
