The Heuer Carrera, introduced in 1963 by Jack Heuer, is a cornerstone of motorsport horology. Designed with an unwavering focus on legibility and clean aesthetics, the Carrera quickly became the chronograph of choice for professional racing drivers.
This specific model, the highly sought-after reference 3147N from 1967, is a 1st Edition execution. It stands out with its rare silver print against the black dial ("N" for Noir). The reference 3147 is historically significant as it introduced a date function to the Carrera line, earning it the moniker "Dato 45" among collectors, powered by the reliable Landeron 189 movement.
What makes this particular piece exceptional is its remarkable state of preservation. Acquired directly from a private collector in Salzburg, Austria, the watch remains in investment-grade quality. From the flawless dial with its fully original tritium luminous material to the incredibly strong mechanics, this Carrera represents a rare opportunity to own a historically significant chronograph in uncompromised condition.
