·It's an interesting discussion. I think there is still a lot of things to be clarified about these early Genève. More picture can certainly help. I just bought one, I will post some picture here when it arrives.

·The early Geneves are great watches. Beautiful details and very collectible. Here’s my 1959 reference 2903, caliber 268.

·As a sidelight on this discussion, the early Geneves are the only model (that I've noticed) which break the hand length rule on a regular basis. I've seen numerous examples where the minute hand appears both original and "too long", including several on this thread and a 267 in my possession. Mine's in a Dennison case and I have wondered whether they and other case makers assembled the whole thing including hands without regard to hand length. Just speculation on my part; perhaps someone here knows more.
Fifties 30mm references such as 2792s break the rule consistently too.

·Lovely watch - the early Geneves were beautiful. The 2 tone dials from the 50's are among my favorite designs.
