About This Watch

Pre-owned & mint. Comes with orig. boxes, manual, dated paper. 1 owner's watch in superb condition & never polished, it has very minor hairlines on the bracelet which is hardly a bother & free from dents with a perfect glass. This is a rare limited edition Tag Heuer Carrera chronograph with just 4000 numbered pieces made in commemoration on the 50th anniversary of the last Gran'Prix F1 won by Juan Manuel Fangio (1911-1995). His signature is printed on the dial & the glass back. I am a huge racing enthusiast & this edition has great meaning to me but we can't be keeping everything so this has to go. Don't miss this special piece!

J M Fangio is a Argentinian borned to Italian parents. He won 5 world championships in F1 & this record stood unbroken for 46 years only to be broken by Michael Schumacher. Fangio raced for Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Mercedes, Ferrari & a few others; dominating the F1 in post WWII years then retired in 1958. He sold Mercedes cars after that. He was regarded by many as the greatest driver in history.
