    For sale is my Heuer Carrera 1153 N with a stunning blue dial. This particular model was nicknamed the "Mick Jagger" and is a 2nd execution of this model. I am selling a few of my watches to make room for incoming pieces.

    Condition:

    Case is in good condition, with the reference and serial numbers still visible and legible. No major markings or dings.

    Dial is in good condition, some marks noticeable around the subdials under the loupe, also a small dot under the Carrera, it looks like spec of dust on the photos. Lume on both the dial and hands has been re-done.

    The watch has it's original signed crown and fluted pushers.

    Movement: *RARE* Calibre 12, time and chorno functions working well, however the service history is unknown.
    *Note*: "Keen observers will notice that this is a rare example of the Calibre 12 that features all silver components, whereas most Calibre 12s feature Gold coloured plates and bridges. Our good friend Abel Court (take a look here if you are not familiar with Abel’s work) who took these photos, estimates that he has seen only ten Silver-coloured Calibre 12 movements over the last 10 years." - Source www.calibre11.com

    I've tried to capture the watch in all it's beauty as well as any of it's minor flaws through the photos I've posted. (I blurred the last digits of the serial number). Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Asking: 3,900 USD, shipping to be discussed with buyer. Accept Paypal F&F, Bank Wire or Paypal + fees with references.

    I have references on the forum as well as other references on Canwatchco if needed.
