    All parts authentic from the time of production.

    Right of the bat, the crown isn't.


    Who wants to add the next part.

    C'mon, you guys are too exacting. Time of production doesn't necessarily suggest "original" now, does it?

    I thought that German watch dealers were more regulated than most, ie 30 day return option is law except in case of an auction. How does a "dealer" get away with listing this watch in this manner?

    All the hands look too good to be true, like new replacements from the 3594.50?

    I think for the price I can stick with mine for 1/20th the price ::bleh:: ::facepalm1::

    I'm not an expert at all - but just to say something positive about the watch - the flattened "O" and the short hashes on the minute sub-dial would be right for a 2915.

    Bezel, hands, upper pusher and crown as well as the inner protection cover are not correct.
    On the other hand: How oftern per year does an all correct 2915 show up?

    yes indeed. Looks like it is the all correct -1 dial.
    BTW, have you noticed that the diameter of totalisators are different between -1 and -3 dials? This is a feature not yet mentioned in the book. The -1 totalisators are slightly larger.

    I cannot see any difference between A1 and A3, based on my pictures. I tried to scale all 3 images and see the difference of space between the totalisators... Do you have other pictures? Thanks.
