I saw some other chronographs with De Ville instead of Seamaster, but the rest of the dial looks exactly the same to me. Same reference number too. What's the difference between the two?
Has anyone on the forum seen or have this particular dial 145.006? Looks incredible and I want more pictures...
I think gold plating was removed and hands changed, too. But those have nothing to do with the 145.006 / 145.016 references - wrong thread
Beautiful ! And what a condition !!! Congrats and thanks for sharing --> First reference post updated accordingly.
Yes I like the condition a lot only wear his bigger brother 145.020 a lot more so think about selling it.. buy I hesitate because I dont find another in this condition again and I’ve Just ordered an Extract of the archives..
Found a NOS dial for a 145.016. Interesting to see an applied logo on cal.861 watches, like on 145.022-68 Transitional Speedmasters. Same period
Found some photographs online from a watch with the same dial, a 145.016 with what I called here a Silver soleil radial dial with gold applied logo and indexes : - Silver soleil dial - Applied gold logo - Radial sub counters - Gold applied indexes - Integrated tachymètre scale - Gold hour and minute hands with a tritium track - Thin gold chrono hand - Black sub counter hands An absolute beauty IMO and the only example I have observed so far. --> First reference post updated accordingly.
I don't see where the tritium is on these dials. On dials with this shaped applied hour markers, it is usually a little ball that is sits outside the marker...is it missing or am I looking in the wrong spot?
