Re: Market Watch: Carrera 2447 N (Second Execution)

strong price for a pice that needs much work. The chrono sweep hand is wrong, the sub dial hands are wrong and painted, the original hands (h/m) are in poor condition with rust. The chapter ring is probably correct, I believe its just a reflection that is making it look wrong...but hard to tell with the quality of the sellers images. Regardless will take a good bit of scarce parts to make this whole...and then you still have the wrong dial.

: This one just sold on eBay, at $6,766 --

: It is a (relatively rare) second execution dial (with wider markers
: than the first execution), but the hands look kind of strange. I
: believe that second execution hands should have the black
: inserts, as well as the lume inserts, right?
