Agree; Need to See It In-the-Metal

I agree that until we see it in-the-metal, it's difficult to know how it will really look. Things like the geometry of the crystal, finish of the metal and overall heft register in big ways.

Still, I am optimistic and looking forward to seeing the real thing.

: Jeff, this is a wonderful piece - really well put together.

: I completely agree, its great to see this this top movement in a
: classic Heuer line -and great that the watch is a Carrera that
: has links to the past but is a thoroughly modern watch.

: I remember thinking with the JH 80th birthday Carrera that the
: subdials appeared a little close together in pics, but weren't
: when you saw the watch in the flesh. I suspect that will be the
: case here and the curved crystal in its 3D flesh will make the
: dial really pop.
