Hi Ed
The 2998-1 looks great ! Nice base 1000 bezel as well... The bracelet does it have 19 mm ends ? Also will you post close up of the clasp would like to see manufacturing details.
Here is a pic of my 2998-6... 
and my later Speedy Pro from 1967.....( my parents bought this one new as a gift for my older brother...)
Ed, can you post closeups of the instructions and ad booklet you have?
See you on the forum
Good Hunting
