not sure, if this is a marvel. it`s a mish-mash of refurbished parts......
omega factory dials do NOT age this way. and the minute and hour hands are not omega at all. only the correct movement number can shed light into this speedy. and the outside caseback, who is very distinctive for the first series. with these speedys it`s good to make your homework, could be a costly mistake..... and there are very good metal bezels now, very hard to tell apart from the real ones. expensive, but good. if you want to know more, go to the munich watchfair and if you do not know, whom to ask, just spread word that you look for the old bezel. kind regards. achim
A slice of chocolate: CK 2915-1.
Will post more soon, but for the moment, just a picture of this 2915-1. The case is polished, the bezel is a service one, and I ma not sure the hands have their orginial lume, but this dial is just to die for. Enjoy, Nicolas...
Nice....
Yes , It is a really nice piece , if is yours ¡¡¡¡¡¡ CONGRATULATIONS¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Very nice CK
Nicolas, Beautiful specimen. I would not care if the bezel is a service one and the lume of the hands seems to be fine. Congratulations, Nilo
To say all, I don't really care about the bezel...
Not mine, though, but I woiuld love to have this kind of dial! Best, Nicolas
That is why I wanted to share this marvel.
Will post more pics later... Hope to be able to get one, one day.... Best, my friend. Nicolas

Sure about the dial though belonging to a 2915
but that's the only thing I can be sure of.
yes and no. the current omega replacement dial has no step either.....
i´ve seen them repainted in very dark brown to make them look like the original. you have to remove the dial and look at the back of the dial with the stampings, to be sure. this goes the same way as the rolex paul newman owners and their dials..... have ...
Wasn't just referring to that
The brownish tinge in the dial appears uneven and not a more even repainted dial, the lume appears to be correctly aged radium and the 5 minute hash marks are of the correct length.
My 2915 is also a brown no step dial.
Hi mike and Achim I can say my 2915 dial is also brown and no step and it's been on my watch for many many years .... Best Bill Sohne
Not mine, and not sure I will get one 2915 one day.
First because I missed the train when I could take it, then because it is a too hot reference with too many weird things. Though, I was and still am pretty sure the dial is good. Best, Nicolas.
Nice but...
Thanks for posting Nicholas, but as you rightly point out, much can be done with plastic surgery. The hour and minutes hands do not seem original, the bezel is refurb,, the dial I do not kown. Only the case shows its real age. I prefer watch in their own ...
I had some doubts on the hands, too.
Relumed and / or service, I really don't know. The dial looks good, to me. I will show you another one, more " coherent ", later... Best! Nicolas
What a nightmare
I always think, trying to get a Rolex Red Sub that is factory-original and authentic is close to impossible and now comes this 2915. One has to be an expert or else, it is going to be a nightmare, after the purchase.
