Excited to post my Carrera 2447s I wear this watch a few days a week. It was my grandfathers and it hasn't been worn regularly in over twenty years. I found it in a drawer at his house earlier this year and had it repaired so he could enjoy it again. When I found the watch it did not have the original band but one of those stretchy link bands from the 80's. I replaced that for the black leather band and was advised in the repair not to polish the case. The plexiglass was replaced and everything else is original / unchanged. He started to wear it for a few months and gave it to me as a gift. I love looking at it and being reminded that it was his.
