Re: 4,932 Days Later – I think these were worth the wait!

Jeff-A public thanks to you for your kind words. While I may have done the leg work with the Camaros I could not have done it without the support, knowledge, guidance and excellent record keeping of yourself, Andee (of course) plus the numerous other experts I consulted along the way, who helped enormously.

I have to admit it was also a great deal of fun being immersed in these little fellas for most of this year-they do have a habit of drawing you in, not just because of the array of variations, colours and designs...but also their undeniable charm and understated elegance, in some cases at least!

We know full well it isn't 100% complete but I hope it's pretty close; and as Andee says, the interest is that 'nobody knows it all' when it comes to vintage watches.

If there are any models known that aren't shown (yet) do let us know!

Best to all,

Steve

: Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased to announce that 4,932 days
: after we launched OnTheDash (February 12, 2003), we have
: completed the Camaro section of the website . That’s right,
: now you can visit the Camaro section, to see 46 different models
: and executions of this most vexing of all the vintage Heuers.

: Huge thanks to three generations of contributors. Shaun Wainstein
: got the ball rolling in 2005, with the beginnings of a Camaro
: reference table. Mark Moss advanced the cause in 2009, with some
: further additions to the reference table.

: Then, in December 2015, round three of the effort to catalog the
: Camaros began, with Steve Perry and Andee (of Rarebirds fame),
: suggesting that we collaborate to complete this project. Andee
: provided all his photos of the Camaros, and Steve and I have
: been trying to make sense of the photos and the old Heuer
: catalogs ever since.

: Some of you may be wondering whether we have a Reference Table for
: the Camaros, and the answer is “yes” and “no”. Yes, we
: have a reference table showing all the details of the 46
: versions of the Camaro, but this reference table is in an
: entirely new format. This new style of reference table presents
: over 30 fields of data for each of the models (including
: movement, measurements, details of the dial and hands, serial
: number ranges, etc.), But “no”, we are not yet ready to
: publish this Camaro reference table, as we will use new
: technology and new capabilities to present all this information.
: Don’t worry folks, you have been waiting 13-1/2 years for the
: Camaro section, what another couple of months for the reference
: table.

: Special thanks go to Steve Perry for his amazing work in bringing
: the Camaro section of OnTheDash and the Camaro reference table
: to completion. Over the last couple of months, we have exchanged
: messages almost every day, trying to solve the mysteries of the
: Camaro, and Steve has done the lion’s share of the detective
: work.

: As always, this new Camaro section is a work in progress. We will
: welcome any comments, suggestions or corrections. Let me also
: point out that most of the galleries showing the Camaros have
: very few photos showing samples of the watches. Rest assured
: that we have hundreds of great photos of the Camaros, and will
: “populate” the galleries after we are confident that we have
: accurately presented the models and executions.

: So thanks again to all our collaborators and I hope that all our
: readers will enjoy this new section of OnTheDash.

: The image below shows 36 models and executions of the Camaro . . .
: to see all models that we have cataloged, start HERE .
