Heuer Carrera 2447S.

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-10:01

We saw many modern iterations of the Carrera, lately, but the original has to be mentioned. Uber classic and sensual with its typical case and its timeless dial. Credit: Shruck the Oyster. These lugs are driving me crazy, I must confess. Best, Nicolas ...

I totally agree... those legs... oops, sorry lugs🙄

:))) Good one!

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-15:58

😎, no kidding: love those straight lugs.

By: Bobbe : August 3rd, 2022-16:03

I totally understand.

I couldn't resist.

And she brings pizza, too? Surely she is some mythical Goddess..?

By: RabidManatee : August 3rd, 2022-21:04

Bobbe, did you ask her?

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-21:15

I’m preparing a shrine as we speak lest he answer in the affirmative.

By: RabidManatee : August 3rd, 2022-21:29

:)))

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-21:32

Of course I did, only 😬she isn't a goddess, she is a beast.... she ate the whole stack of pizza's.😬

By: Bobbe : August 4th, 2022-07:07

Run, my friend, run!

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-07:13

I did, first thing in the morning. I am hiding somewhere along the Costa Brava.

By: Bobbe : August 4th, 2022-16:51

...

Heaven!

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-17:43

It is, certainly after 4 hot days in Barcelona. And Lily can finally read a book after all the sightseeing! I am a happy dad.

By: Bobbe : August 4th, 2022-17:52

...

Cute moments.

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-18:12

The best!!

By: Bobbe : August 4th, 2022-19:02

Have to agree.

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-20:21

👍

By: Bobbe : August 4th, 2022-21:13

HAHAHA! Quite the exchange, this 😁

By: RabidManatee : August 4th, 2022-22:04

;) ;) ;)

The legs on these early Carreras are intoxicating

By: Cozmopak : August 3rd, 2022-16:10

...

Aaaah here we are. Can you post a more " profile " photo of the case, please?

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-16:12

Absolutely.

By: Cozmopak : August 3rd, 2022-16:14

I’ll take a profile photo tonight.

Merci!

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-16:21

Here you go Nico

By: Cozmopak : August 4th, 2022-03:31

...

Quite a thick beast! Thank you so much, mon ami.

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-05:40

Here you go. Very leggy for a 36mm watch. I measured approximately 45mm lug to lug.

By: BigAppleBill : August 3rd, 2022-18:04

...

What a case! How high is it?

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-20:23

From caseback to bezel it’s approximately 9mm and from caseback to crystal it’s approximately 11mm.

By: BigAppleBill : August 4th, 2022-21:28

Thanks for these precisions!

By: amanico : August 5th, 2022-15:04

Superb!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : August 3rd, 2022-16:26

This one is growing on me…I even went to Tag website for the red version but was sold out already!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : August 3rd, 2022-16:26

This is the vintage one. There was a very close to this one, made in 2020, called 160th Anniversary.

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-16:31

...

Looks really cool as well…thanks for sharing!

By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : August 3rd, 2022-16:37

It is, very tempting for sure.

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-21:14

I love my 2447NST. Why buy the re-edition when you can own the original?

By: BigAppleBill : August 3rd, 2022-18:10

I believe the re-editions are proportioned differently. 39mm compared to the original 36mm with longer lugs. Plus, the original has the Valjoux 72 movement. For me it’s the closest I’ll come to owning a Newman Daytona. ...

Wow

By: Flanker : August 3rd, 2022-18:39

This is stunning Bill.

Thank you!

By: BigAppleBill : August 3rd, 2022-19:27

I can only agree, especially when I see such a top specimen.

By: amanico : August 3rd, 2022-20:22

My late father's from 1960's now in the "safe" hands of my brother. I may have to kill him!!

By: chippyfly : August 4th, 2022-10:37

I introduced my brother to the Heuer ex-employee watch repairer for an amazing restoration and then I supplied him with the new strap. Gold-plated case. Such is brotherly "love". Clive ...

How cool.

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-20:23

Overdrive 😉

Damn temptation... ;)

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-20:21

"To get rid of a temptation, you have to yield to it." Oscar Wilde. You and we all here live by that rule. 😊

By: COUNT DE MONET : August 4th, 2022-21:22

Yes, yes, yes!

By: amanico : August 4th, 2022-21:35

😃👍
