Nicolas, it sounds like we are doing the same homework...

 

Maybe we should start a study group!

Well, you know I am no vintage expert - but may I offer what I have seen so far..?

These are the 2914-x that I have seen - not obvious been tampered with and with verified ref.

Not that many but at least it gives a indication...

In total - 15 pieces.
2914-1: Big arrow hour-, dauphin minute- and straight second hand. (4)
2914-2: Dauphin hour and minute- and  straight second hand. (1)
2914-2: Big arrow hour-, dauphin minute- and straight second hand. (1)
2914-3: Big arrow hour-, dauphin minute- and straight second hand. (4)
2914-3: Dauphin hour and minute- and lollipop second hand. (1 - I suspect the second hand has been replaced)
2914-4: Dauphin hour and minute- and  straight second hand. (1)
2914-5: Big arrow hour-, dauphin minute- and straight second hand. (1)
2914-6: Dauphin hour and minute- and arrow second hand. (1)
2914-6: Big arrow hour-, dauphin minute- and straight second hand. (1)

The only thing I feel certain of is that it's a minefield out there...!

Hope you find yours soon!


Best, my friend

I am no specialist, just an amateur but here is what I found out. There is published evidence of both broad arrow hour + dauphine minute hands AND dauphines for both in advertising during the first short period when the Railmaster was produced. My observa... 

Agreed – both.
