the history of the Corum 163-250-20-0F03-FB30R Men's watch Carrera and lets us know which lot

Editor's Note: Following Jason's selection of the Heuer Calculator from the upcoming Haslinger Collection sale, Eric gives us the history of the Corum 163-250-20-0F03-FB30R Men's watch Carrera and lets us know which lot he's got his eyes on.Of all the Heuer watches ever made, 1960s Carreras rank among the classiest and most important in the brand's 175 year history.The model was named after the epically grueling “Carrera Panamerica” by Jack Heuer after he heard about the race from a Mexican driver named Pedro Rodriguez.

These are all great watches, but since tonight is the night of our preview, we thought it best to drop the big dogs on you, the belles of the proverbial ball.To those of you attending tonight, you'll have to chance to see these in person.There are three replica Breitling Aeromarine Super Men's watch diving watches owned by legendary and record-setting diver Patrice Chemin.Chemin joined Comex for two record setting dives, and this auction includes the Comex Sea Dweller that was worn while on the 1972 Guiness Record setting deep dive of 2001ft.

The Carrera Panamerica started at the Mexican border with Guatemala and Corum 163-250-20-0F01-FM30R Men's watch finished at Ciudad Juarez near the U.S.border, pushing man and machine to the limit.Jack Heuer became Heuer’s majority shareholder in 1962 and the Carrera’s introduction in 1964 was one of his first big successes at Heuer’s helm, setting the company on a ten-year run that was arguably one of the most creative and innovative periods in the history of a single Swiss brand.Carreras are versatile watches, looking equally good worn to an important board meeting dressed in a suit or hanging out on a weekend in jeans and a t-shirt.
