Footnotes
- The so called 'Panda' dials with contrasting sub-registers are very rare and sought after collectors pieces. The silver starburst dial shows a beautiful patina and with the rare combination of panda dial and tachymeter track at the outer levelled circle.
The case has the original chronograph pushers and Heuer signed crown and the earlier all steel hour markers have been slightly redesigned and now show black inserts. These versions are among the rarest Carreras in existence today.
