Re: Carrera 3647 NT
In Response To: Carrera 3647 NT ()

It looks good to me, too.

The outer edges of the case are hardly visible on the photo, but the upper edges look very sharp, so it seems the case has not been polished (or only lightly) in the past. The french market printing "Fab. Suisse" adds a special touch to this already rare dial. The lume of the hands is beginning to fall off, the lume dots at 1 and 2 are beginning to deteriorate. But this is a rather easy fix for one of our master craftsmen. Interesting to notice is the fact that the lume dot at 3, which is already missing, had been mispositioned - we have already seen this several times on these dials.

You certainly already did, but if not, you might ask the seller if the serial number is visible and if the caseback and the bridge are Heuer Leonidas signed.

Yuriae, I would certainly go for it.

Best regards,
Robert
