    Looks like there should be 14 in the 68-78 Cal 861 list, to include the 145.022-69 220 Bezel ...

    I think this has been discussed previously. As it was merely a bezel misprint, it doesn’t merit the first team.

    How about the Meister and Tiffany dials 145.022-69. Thoses are quite rare and interesting.

    Yes I love them.
    I believe these were marked by the retailers themselves ?
    Very interesting these signed dials but not an omega issued reference or variation, I think so outside my parameters (I hope - I don’t have any room!)
    Also verifying the Tiffany dials is challenging as I have not seen One offered with provenance, but I have seen well documented meister dials. I think there might be a Gubelin version too.

    Always good to see them.

    Do we have a thread on them yet?

    I recently attempted to compare this list with what's in MWO. However counted, this bezel misprint should be fitted only to the 145.022-69 produced in the second half of 1970 and the Alaska II project speedmasters. MWO also listed the Alaska I and II project speedies as pre-1978 cal 861.

    Some Alaska I info listed here - https://www.phillips.com/detail/OMEGA/CH080218/36

    And Alaska II here - https://www.phillips.com/detail/OMEGA/CH080216/34
