Only 150 of the 1158 Carrera?
In Response To: Reality Check: Can There be Only 150 of the 1158 Carreras? ()

Hi Jeff and crew...

I purchased this one about 5 years ago from a former TAG employee... at that time, he told me that he had met with Jack Heuer in Switzerland and asked him about these gold Carreras, getting the response that 250 of them were produced over a 5 year period, or 50 per year...

A beautiful watch but it never received any wrist time from me, so off it went... a rare bird indeed but not one of the classic Heuers IMHO...

cheers,
Peter
