    nice dial and a new case, looks more like a put together watch.

    I must admit that is really a rare dial. I have never seen one of these in the flesh, having seen possibly any Speedmaster variation and overhauled more than a few 2915s.
    If I were a collector, I would have chased it.

    Caseback is printed 145.0012... this is very likely a put-together watch or otherwise doctored

    This is obvious. However, I believe that the sale should have been intended of the dial only.

    Of course it's a put together watch. But the dial only is worth a lot.

    At that value though? Even if the seller would accept an offer at ~20% of his asking price I don't know that the dial is worth that much... no? (I am not knowledgeable about dial values)

    I think the dial alone could sell for approx 10K$. I was hesitating to pull the trigger when I saw the eBay listing, but I'm saving for a 2998-1 or -2.

    I am skeptical that the dial is worth $10k on its own.

    Unless one happens to have a confirmable example that needs a new dial, it can only end up as part of a franken.

    I don't know how many legit examples there are with this dial (or if it can even be known/documented) but it can't be many.

    It would be interesting to know the particulars - if any - of which references and movement numbers would be correct for these dials. They are catching, that's for sure.

    The hour markers should be long for a 321 cal shouldn't it?
