That must be the newest model of Carrera. I have never seen one look like that. Very nice.

Quick update. As I let my Chrono run then stop and reset it the 1/20th and second hands start to inch their way backwards. I dont know if this is normal or not.

Shall I return it or live with it?

That is an issue and will have to be worked on by an horologist. Shouldn't be expensive unless the watch is used and needs a service.

I've posted this one before, but I took this with my camera and the picture turned out well.


It's a Raymond Weil Don Giovanni Limited Edition (greater China 105/199) from 2005. I bought it from Tourneau at the beginning of this year
