    2913-3 and 2913-6: Similar condition examples with original parts including the crown but with different hands. Both have the original bracelets and endlinks. Bezels of course are the original factory ones and not done by Aldo.

    Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. These are ones I've never seen in person and I'd love to (if anyone in the Bay Area wants to share ping me :)). Do you wear them? I would be so concerned about that bezel.

    No I don't because of bezel concerns. I have 2 more 2913s aside from this pair that also have intact original bezels that I don't wear but have several other straight lug SM300s that either have redone bezels or "blank bezels" that I wear from time to time..

    Very nice, once again, as interesting as the second is with its lollypop hand, the first just looks the superior design, its like they got it right the first time then spent the following decade trying water it down.

    I don't know, the first one looks better, no argument there, but on a diver the arrow on the minutes hand makes sense.

    Wasn't the lollipop seconds on the ones used by some South American Air Force?

    Several? Let me know when you have a garage sale.

    WOW!
    I love the first one, I prefer those hands. This is my grail! :)
    I hope I could find one one day...
    And your watches are in amazing condition!
    Very nice.

    Incredible pair :thumbsup: Any chance to see a picture of the crown, to reveal the mistery which crown would be correct for my 14755-61. ;)

    Thanks
