Good morning all,

found a CK2988-4 for sale that I’m considering buying and I’ve attached some photos.

Parts all look original to my eye and appropriate for the model apart from the pulsation bezel which could be aftermarket or added at a later date. Although the bezel has aged well.

Any thoughts?

Modern service bezel that’s been artificially aged IMO.
it’s not even install in the right position.

Service crown as well… but above all, I def don’t think that this movement is original to the watch because of the asymmetrical clutch bridge. Need the serial #… but in the meantime, I would recommend you study @Spacefruit : William’s Speedmaster101 website.

Thanks for the comments. The serial matches the model number. 170xxxx range.

Always a bit silly not to just link to the auction.. most of us have seen it anyway. The more information we have the more assistance we can provide.

Thanks for sharing. I was following the vintage posting guide guidelines but I’ll know for next time.
