    OK I will kick off for starters:

    1: Wrong bracelet, 7707/7912 both had capped ends not exposed ends and clasp all wrong
    2: Wrong crown

    NEXT.........................

    Well, ok. Hour hand looks short, and I thought black bezel on 2915-3 should go with alpha hands and not arrow hands?

    Not a big speedy guy but I must admit that is an attractive dial with that patina

    Too slick (over polished) for my liking

    I think I have to agree here. That watch shouldn't be that "pretty" outside of nos condition (which I do not believe exists)

    You're right - shiny when it left the factory. This is a 2998-1 but the 2915-3 case should have the same attributes:

    bezel and hand combination goes well. the 2915-3 was built for very very short time, maybe only 1959 or so. They are correct either with black Base 1000 or silver bezel as well as with arrow or the dauphine hands (but the dauphine is only if the hour hand is super large). What I do not like is the exagerated yellow of the lume. Looks like a not well done relume. However pictures might be incorrect in colours.

    2915-3 is prospector in many ways,introduced black base 1000 in 2915-3,dauphine hands,serial numbers 16648xxx-16649xxx,movement holders,bezel indicator on the case(only 2915-3,2998-1,2998-2 have dose)2915-3 is unique watch with no space to messed with,and put them together in garages.

    I agree, the 2915-3 has th special movement holder with the two holes and 1 and 7 o'clock (see picture) and serials rather in the named range. My 2915-3 either bears a 16.649xxx movement
