Hi Jeff,
The serial number is within the range you have stated. 57111.
Regards,
Amran
: Thanks for posting these photos.
: It's interesting that they moved the "Fisher" to the
: bottom of the dial . . . probably a more balanced look, a good
: improvement.
: I would be very interested to see the full serial number, if you
: might be willing to send it to me privately. We have five
: hex-back Carreras in the range from 563xx to 572xx, so that is a
: relatively narrow range (under 1,000 pieces). I will be
: interested to see whether yours comes within this range or
: represents an expansion. Perhaps we are also seeing more
: precisely exactly when the "Ed. Heuer" transitioned to
: the "Heuer-Leonidas".
: Interesting that you still have "Ed. Heuer" on the
: case-back . . . perhaps they made the transition to
: "Heuer-Leonidas" on the movements -- which were used
: for Carreras and Autavias, among others -- while they continued
: to use up the older cases?
: Jeff
