:
We have cataloged over 100 versions of the vintage Carreras, but
: I have always wanted to have the four basic models of the 2447,
: specifically the S, N, SN and NS.
: The 2447S (white-on-white) came fairly early in my collecting
: career, followed by the 2447SN (black registers on white dial)
: and the 2447 NS (white registers on black dial). The one that
: always escaped was the 2447N (black-on-black).
: Well, the pursuit of the 2447N has ended, with the arrival of the
: fantastic sample (shown top left, in the family portrait,
: below). I will add some detailed photos soon, but key features
: are the hex-back, the Ed. Heuer marking on the movement and . .
: . drum roll, please . . . the lowest serial number that I have
: seen on a Carrera. So I am loving this one, and feel as though
: this portion of the collection is now complete.
