Still waiting to see a 2915 in this thread. Somebody has to have one, right?

Perfect, but is it a pre-pro moon? I finally found a pic of a 2915, but in another thread.

Well, here's a few.. http://speedmaster101.com/blog/2915s/

Well I have seen that page of course, I was waiting to see one from a member posted on this forum. I was beginning to think no one actually had one, that they had all been locked away in some secret underground vault somewhere.

Spacefruit - author of speedmaster101 - is a member here, and Mrs. Spacefruit wears that 2998 blue dial speedy very well!

Quite a few members here have them. Alas, I am not one and probably never will be.

Yeah I saw that blue dial 2998 in a photo, what is the deal with that exactly?

One of my 105012-66 CB with incredible unpolished case.

The crisp beveled edge to that CB case is quite stunning!! Also, that DON bezel looks nearly untouched after 50 years, that's just amazing!!

Thanks !
The first owner didn't wear it because he preferred his Rolex 5513, so this 105012 has long been stored in a drawer.

Wow, that explains it then. What a great find, have you owned it for a long time?

That's amazing that it was stored in a drawer unworn for so long. Did you find it in the US, EU, somewhere else?

Yes it's quite amazing indeed. The watch comes from Brazil. I gave the watch to my watchmaker for a full service in 2015 and he think the movement has never been touched before.

That's incredible, a true diamond in the rough, or in the drawer if you will. I just noticed that you said it's one of your 105.012-66 CB. So you have more than one of those?
