·transitional also refers to the last series of 321, not just the beginning 861. hence, valuewise, the 321-145.012 is the best transition speedy than 861.

While all sorts of things can be described as transitional, in Speedyland if you describe a watch as a “Transitional” and produce anything other than something like @kov ‘s lovely 145.022-68 with AML and low serial, people will wonder what you are talking about.

Using MWO as a reference, the 145.012-68 is not considered transitional. It is simply a new sub reference after the 145.012-67.
The 145.022-68 is transitional as it has a new movement but the retains the raised logo dial. The 145.022-69 marked the end of the raised logo on the dial.

··@SpeedyBirthYearThanks all for your replies. Good to see we are reaching somewhat similar conclusions on this one.
I hope this thread will be educational to others as it has been to me so far.
Now, curious to see whether we will see this watch resurface wearing a ring (bezel) and with some make-up on... ☕

·This will either be a rare ugly watch or a rare relumed unoriginal watch. Neither my cup of speedy.
