This Carrera 7753NS has been mine from new in early 1970, when I was 21. This photo was taken about 20 years ago -- I have a lot less hair now, but still wear the watch.
I admit I haven't been truly faithfull. In 1982 I treated myself to a new Seamaster. Not a chronograph however, so sailboat race starts still had to be timed with the Carrera. Haven Series in the 1980s anyone? I was in Sigma 33 K4335. When going back to race cars in 1987, Timex were making something digital for £30 that had a 7 lap memory, so the Carrera was retired from circuit duty.
