A.296 is the expected movement here: 18 jewels, unidirectional winding, no shock protection, and the same gradual date change the earlier Big Bubblebacks used. The fast takeaway is that the 6105 still belongs mechanically to the Bubbleback world, even as the Datejust name finally appears.

One detail matters for authentication on 6105 and 4467 examples alike: dial feet positions differ between A.295 and A.296, and dials are therefore not interchangeable between 4467 and 6105 cases. The point was documented on the Vintage Rolex Forum (thread t-274914) by forum specialist Xeramic and is the standard check when evaluating claimed original-dial 6105 examples. A 6105 dial on a 4467 movement, or vice versa, is a service refit rather than period-correct. On reputable-dealer listings and major auction catalogs, dial-foot position is assumed verified; on private-market and forum-sale examples, buyers will want confirmation.
