no "Andretti", no replacement crown

the bezel and case ist different different vs "Andretti"

the older broad/wide bezel

earlier watch - it is a "transitional" - even with the original plexi

Many thanks for all your positive comments on my Carrera fellas. I highly respect your opinions and learn from them. So bring em on. 鈽猴笍
My critique of it would be the lume on the M/H hands. I often see these with an incredibly beautiful green type lume that just glows. This one is just dead meat, no glolife whatsoever not even the dial. Making it the first vintage Heuer I have that doesn't exhibit at a least 5 seconds of lume.

Nice example, congrats!

Per the lume - this looks like most examples of the later executions that I鈥檝e seen. Could be a relume of course but if it is it鈥檚 well done and sympathetic IMO. Try a UV light and see if there鈥檚 any glow.
