Early Heuer chronographs were designed to be very simple and easy to ready timing machines. The dial was made to be very legible and easy for the driver or navigator to operate. The dial is very clean and the markers are very bright. The scale for marking the 1/10th of a second also serves as a tension ring and is located at the very outer part of the dial. The present example is an early Carrera that has been kept in very honest and original condition.
