Carrera Crowns

Hi All, A quick question on Carrera crowns for the epxerts: What year did signed crowns first appear on a Carrera? I see from the blurb on an Ebay listing from Chronaddict that he claims it was 1969 hence the unsigned crown on his example here:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HEUER-CARRERA-12-ref-2447-N-MkI-Vintage-Valjoux-72-Chronograph-Black-Dial-/121051755105?pt=UK_Jewelery_Watches_Watches_MensWatches_GL&hash=item1c2f3f3261

But I'm aware that he has a less than stellar reputation on this forum and this doesn't sound right to me, but did we see signed crowns as early as 63 or 64?

Best wishes to all.
