Unknown Heuer Carrera

About a thousand years ago when I was in the Danish Navy I got a very nive Heuer Carrera which looks like the first issue of the model 2447, but then again not 100% so.

What is 100% is the following:

Carrera,
2447 style
Valjoux 21 or 22 movement ( it's been a while since the watch was opened )
2 registers (second hand at 9 o'clock and 30min. register at 3 o'clock.)
HEX-style screw back but not the style shown in the pictures in the price guide for 2447 but
an "elevated" style, it's stamped inside so it's definately an original.
The people I have spoken to says that it can be one of the very first models of the carrera's, but again I haven't been able to find any pictures of one like it.

Anybody here who wants to bid-in on what I have ?
