Re: Black Dial 1553?? on ebay
In Response To: Black Dial 1553?? on ebay ()

I'm no Carrera man, but the tell on all these Heuers is the script - this one is too flat and straight, no seriph flourishes. Obviously there is quite a bit wrong including the hands too...

My vote would be re-dial...

: Good day everyone!

: There is a really nice 1553 on ebay. All the 1553s I have seen are
: either blue dial or silver dial. This watch has a black dial
: with a silver subdial.

: On the case the Reference number is 1553 and the Serial number is
: 253066.

: I was wondering if this is a true "factory" heuer OR a
: fake with the black dial.

: thanks for your help!! Tom
