    Hi guys.
    i need your appreciated advice for purchasing an Omega SPM 145.022-69 / straight writing with box AND original PAPERS dated 1973 . no revision documents. seems to be in very good shape and correct with a DN90 bezel, original step tritium dial, correct no. of movement 861. leather strap, no steel bracelet
    the seller is asking 3700 USD. I suppose the price to be quite high w/o bracelet even for a "straight writing" case back. I highly appreciate your comments.
    thanks

    Do you know if the case back is original, or a modern replacement?

    Hi dennis,
    it says 145.022 -69 ST on the plain back w/o hippocampus , straight writing "omega symbol and below first watch worn..." in the centre and writing "flight qualified..."in a circle.
    movement 3284xxxx
    seller claims to be all original.
    how do i note that it is a later replacement?
    thanks

    the pics in the ad are not really good. This watch was several times in R.L.X. sales corner last year and with higher res. pics. like this one. u29728t1415375483-6.jpg

    no problem.....

    for me it looks that the hands are not the "original" ones, i also not really like the lume on the dial. The seller is also not willing or able to provide a pic from the movement....:unsure:
