Re: Heuer Carrera 1153 Cal. 11
Decided to hold off on this one in the end. For couple of reasons. That case was little too rough and the pushers were a little beat up too. Great investment for whoever picked it up. $1450.00 US. Only slightly jealous. Thanks Jeff and Yves for the sage advice.
Marco - If you're thinking of buying this, I would recommend to get
: the crystal from Yves. Changing that will make a pretty big
: difference, and considering how rare they are, its a good catch.
: Even if you don't end-up with the watch, you can always sell
: later. Also, note that this is not a true Panda dial. That would
: be white dial with black sub-dials. This is more of a silver
: dial with a blue sub-dials and blue Tachy ring. As for the
: return, this may not have been returned, but simply not paid
: for. That happens a lot on eBAY. Buyer wins auction and does not
: pay. It takes 2 (+) weeks for the seller to resolve and re-list.
: Last bit of info, parts for Cal. 11/Cal.12 are not cheap. Most
: are available, but if there is an issue, its likely a part alone
: will be around $200. Good luck with your hunt!. Jeff
