FOR YOUR EYES ONLY IS A SEXY MID 60s CLEBAR/ZODIAC POOR MAN'S HEUER CARRERA CHRONOGRAPH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. RECENTLY SERVICED
-
CASE: CLASSY CHROMED CASE IN EXCELLENT AND UNPOLISHED CONDITION. SHE MEASURES A NICE 36mm NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 45mm LUG TO LUG. CHECK OUT THOSE FACETED/CHAMFERED LUGS. CASE DOES SHE A LITTLE WEAR ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE LUGS, BUT OVERALL IN SHARP AND UNPOLISHED CONDITION. SHE WEARS NICE ON THE WRIST DUE TO THAT LONG LUG TO LUG.

DIAL: SIMPLY STUNNING. THIS SILVER SUNBURST DIAL IS IN BEAUTIFUL MINTY CONDITION. I TOTALLY DIG THOSE DEEP DISH SUNKEN SUBDIALS WHICH REALLY HAVE ADD A NICE DEPTH AND 3-DIMENSIONALITY TO THIS DIAL. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SINGER DIAL WHICH WAS USED BY BOTH HEUER AND ROLEX FOR THEIR CHRONO MODELS OF THE SAME ERA. DEFINITELY HAS A STRONG HEUER CARRERA LOOK TO IT. HANDSET IS ALL ORIGINAL AND THE CUSTARDY TRITIUM NICELY MATCHES THAT ON THE DIAL LUME PLOTS. THE TACHY SCALE IN BLUE IS A NICE TOUCH.

MOVEMENT: THIS CHRONO IS POWERED BY THE WORKHORSE LANDERON 248 SIGNED CLEBAR. THE CHRONO ACTION ON THIS ONE IS SUPER SNAPPY. THIS ONE WAS SERVICED IN 2017 AND IS RUNNING LIKE A CHAMP
THIS HEUER SLAYER IS MOUNTED ON A CLASSY SOFT AND SUPPLE CARAMEL COLORED LEATHER STRAP WHICH LETS THE DIAL DO ALL THE TALKING. CLEBAR WAS CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WTH ZODIAC WATCHES AT THIS TIME, AND THERE IS ACTUALLY AN IDENTICAL MODEL THAT ZODIAC ALSO PUT OUT. THE DIAL ON THIS ONE DEFINITELY SHARES SOME DNA WITH THE MUCH PRICIER AND HARDER TO OBTAIN HEUER CARRERAS, BUT I HAPPEN TO DIG THE CASE ON THIS ONE MUCH BETTER. IF YOU'RE A VINTAGE CHRONO GEEK OR A PURVEYOR OF SUPER COOL STUFF, THEN YOU NEED THIS CLEBAR IN YOUR COLLECTION.
