Added to OTD: Early Version of Carrera 2456S (18 KG)

Here's one we don't see every day . . . the first version of the 18 karat gold Carrera . . . Reference 2456S, with dauphine hands. Seems that the switch to standard "match-stick style" Carrera hands came fairly quickly, but this is the first execution. And you guys know much I love these dauphine hands!!

I recall seeing another one of these . . . perhaps on the IVHOC discussion forum? Who can provide photos of other samples?
