Looking for 2 Carreras: Calibre 17 & 18

[FrancisWhitman]

Greetings Heuer Fans,


I've been searching without luck for two specific Carreras, both smaller models which are what my stick wrists tend to prefer. They both seem to exist, but only on somewhat sketchy-looking rep sites that don't overlap with any Trusted Dealer list I've come across. Not really wanting to take my chances.


Any help at all would be supremely appreciated, whether simply pointing me in the direction of a TD who might likely be able to source one for me, or a direct purchase link.


#1 — Carrera Calibre 17 (37mm) > https://shop.hodinkee.com/products/t...t=872377417743

#2 — Carrera Calibre 18 Telemeter (39mm) > https://shop.hodinkee.com/products/t...t=874171498511

Thanks a million, folks.

If I recal correctly, I've seen a quartz version of the calibre 18 on puretime.

I actually did come across this. I sent PT an inquiry regarding the size, which on their site is listed as approximately 4mm larger than the gen, and they confirmed that it is indeed larger. Probably using a case from another Carrera model. So, unfortunately a bit out of my size range. The search continues!

sorry to hear that buddy.
let's hope they make a decent rep of it someday.
if you're looking for small diameter chrono's, you should check the vintage daytona's
marvellous even has them on sale: https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...rolex-daytona-6263-6265-6238-6239-6241-series

Very nice! I recently stumbled across another vintage Daytona via Perfect Clones that I really liked (aware that they're not a TD on this forum, but just for reference). https://www.pf-828.com/0-0-0-0-0-0rl....html?___SID=U

Nice model!
If I'm not mistaken, it's also in the imgur album of marvellous, so also on sale
