The Carrera 1158 in gold is probably the most iconic gold chronograph ever produced by Heuer. Known among collectors as the “Ferrari Carrera ”because of its close partnership with Ferrari from 1971 to 1979, during which the team benefited from Heuer's timekeeping instrument and a number of famous drivers received this watch. The present example is particularly beautiful and well-preserved, with the black edges of the hands matching those of the hour markers and counters. Striking a perfect balance between Heuer's sporty DNA and the sleek and elegant 18K yellow gold case, this watch embodies the glamorous era of 1970s race tracks.
