Carrera
Ref. 1553 S
Year: 1972
Movement: Cal. 15
When I was offered this Carrera 1553 S in NOS (New Old Stock) condition I could not resist.
It originally came from a former employee of the Danish Heuer agent. I have not yet spoken to him, but the seller (the second owner) has promised to put me in contact with him. He might have some interesting stories to tell.
The watch is a genuine NOS and wont be NOS anymore if I wear it, which is against my belief that my watches are to be used.
But it is fantastic with a dial that is like new. And the lume that is still glowing. And the grinding of the case. And the Corfam strap with a strange brownish gray colour. And the sun buckle. And the very perfect red box. And the
