Re: Heuer Carrera 1553 w/ Black Dial

Daniel,

It's not the first time that very unique Carrera pops up.
The first time it sold for $2501.00
Have a look:

: I came across this one on Ebay. According to the Master Reference
: Table the 1553 N should come with a dark blue dial. Is this a
: "rare dial" as the seller claims or a franken? The
: watch as a whole looks too clean and freshly polished to my
: eyes, but I am far from an expert. Do any of the real experts
: care to weigh in?
