Holy thread resurrection, Batman! (Because I just bought this and I'm nervous).
The caseback is sterile which concerns me. However, everything else looks correct and this hasn't been butchered. It looks and feels like it has always been this way .... and I have spent a day looking for another with no joy. I am sure that some here saw this come up for auction .... anyone want to throw in their thoughts?
Glad to see it ended up in a good home!
I was bidding as well.
Everything points to a 24h version of cal 2225.
Lemania made 24h versions of several different calibres.
This is the first Cal15 base movement I鈥檝e seen.
Appreciate if you share more pictures and perhaps a video when you get it in hand.

I absolutely will share more. Apart from Lemania lending this movement to Breitling for the Carpenter Breitling (and I only have that by word of mouth) I was unaware of 24 hour versions of the 2225. A new rabbit hole to start down!

Yeah, behind the curtains, we had a pre-bid Lemaniac discussion about this piece. To all of us, it seems legit, but it is a real unicorn. Something I would have loved to have won myself, but unfortunately for me, my money fountains dried up due to hoarding watches. 馃榿
I can only admit I'm jealous, but I can live with the idea that somebody else is really enjoying this watch. 馃槈
