    I bought this 2998-62 recently, not a perfect example but I like the patina. It's the first time I find a vintage decimal bezel, they seem very rare.

    I think the vintage specialty bezels are starting to get noticed. Well deserved.

    The patina on this piece is staggeringly nice...I like the lighting in the photos as well. Wear in good health!

    Can’t wait to see natural light shots. Ghost bezels look so much better in hand then photos suggest.

    That cb... wow.

    476A43E0-B162-4198-A556-B9747A24E711.png Congrats, yours is a lovely timepiece, looks great with that bezel. It’s funny though, such a rare version and yet it’s the 2nd I’ve seen today. This 2998-62 (19583***) is currently on the bay for AUS $25,000 but looks like it needs a bit of attention

    Thanks for that - was too lazy to search the threads :whistling:
    Also some dodgy feedback would put me off if I was in the market
