bros, what are your opinions on the heuer carrera (chronograph) 1964 re-edition?

some brief facts about this watch (unless i'm mistaken, according to my brief research).

- envisioned in 1996.
- produced from 1998 - 2000.
- equipped with the lemania 1873 movement (a.k.a omega calibre 861)
- 36mm case.
- acrylic crystal.
- strap only.

some relevant links:

seeking your advice on the following:

- what's a reasonable price for fair condition watch only with heuer buckle (no box/papers) gunk/dust collected between lugs and strap, scratches over case back, sides and lugs.
- it's value as a collectible, future appreciation, value retention, significance, etc, etc.

appreciate your input! :)

no one likes the heuer 1964 re-edition? :s11:

Yes, you also own this? :)

I wish/hope to - the old school khaki canvas with brown leather trims. :lick: :love:

billingham are posh camera bags ($400 for your hadley pro?) but would like to use them as regular bags. how are they that way? are they too "soft/shapeless" without the compartment inserts. what made you chose fibrenyte over canvas? thanks.

Haha that combo is the most popular!

I bought from hong kong which is much cheaper. Mine cost 298sgd only. I also wants to buy another colour for casul use. Asking my friend who is going hongkong at the end of the year. Really super nice quality and water proof. The brass hardware :deg:

I choose fibrenyte cos i think its smoother to the touch, but the purist like the canvas cos it ages more gracefully? Better? I have no problem with mine though.

Its a little form less without the insert though. So i use it with. Its neater also haha. You can use without also just a little formless.

Oh ya I ordered 2 more black borealis vulcanized 22mm rubber strap to get FedEx express. Anyone interested? Pm me. Not earning.
This is the strap. Similar to isofrane but 1/4 of the price.
