In Response To: Re: CARRERA 1553S ()

: Ernesto,

Ron,

I do not have any relation or financial interest with the seller, but at the same time I do not want to question his statements about the codition of his Carrera.

In my own opinion the information was misrepresented.

Maybe I am too picky with the vintage watches I buy, but if someone claims that a watch is MINT almost NOS condition I do not expect the case and the crystal to be heavy polished and the luminous in the hands missing.

I don't get why people keep putting those transparent labels with the red strip on the case back and claim that a watch is NOS !

Just my $ 0.02
