One thing is the good looks of the 007. When you take into account that the 1040/41 is perhaps the finest automatic Omega/Lemania chronograph movement from those days I applaud your choice.
Both the 1040/41 and 1045 have the same superior minute counter but the earlier are made to a much finer standard.
The price is still low IMO. Buy a good one or budget in a service. Happy hunting!
