Can you help me identify one of my late father's pieces?

Anyway, I found this a few days ago in one of his watch boxes. It runs smooth (to my 19 year old untrained eye), but I want to know more about it possibly! My mother knows nothing of it. Thank you all!

Wow, that's a great find! You have a Heuer Carrera 3647N, which is a manual-wind model from the mid 1960s (Valjoux 92 movement). It looks to be in very nice condition too!

Beautiful! This is the one referred to as the Carrera 45 isn't it?

Wow, that's tidy looking. I really like this. A very uncluttered and functional/elegant looking Chrono.

I wish my father did have such good tastes in watches 😉!
Congratulations on your heirloom, a classy one that will never get out of style.
Cheers,
