One of the most beautiful 60s vintage chronographs ever produced in my opinion, an exercise in restraint, less is more here. Perfect proportions too. They won't make a watch this beautiful ever again, and it rally attests to their timless designs.
The iconic Heuer Carerra 2447T series of chronographs served as a benchmark for sports timers through the 1960s golden era.
The stunning two tone silvered/grey and cream toned dial is amazingly preserved, with little to no wear, the lume in fantastic condition aged to a deep hue.
This is a very well preserved example, and not one you come acrosss often.
The watch has a 10 million serial range visible clearly between the lugs, as is the referernce 2447T
