In Response To: This is Early, but Definitely Not the First ()

Ok, thank you Jeff for that information.

I was referring to your interview with Hodinke:

Hodinke said: "Starting in the 54XXX serial range, we begin to see the earliest two-register Carreras, ref. 3647, the earliest known of which is serial 54510. Inside are Valjoux 92 movements and in the Heuer catalogs and advertisements of the day they were called Carrera 45 models, since the minute registers count to 45 minutes. "
