    Hi , while looking for a Speedmaster 145.012-67, noticed this on E bay.
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-Omega-...MOON-Vintage-Watch-145012-67-SP-/401042421054Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network
    I contacted the seller for more info and waiting for the response.
    The dial, bezel, and hands look ok to me. The crown looks like a replacement.
    I can not read the serial number (waiting for a better pic from the seller).
    What is your assessment?
    I really appreciate your inputs on this.
    Thanks,
    Kenneth

    Chrono seconds hand is wrong; dial looks like it might have been washed but we'll see. Serial looks like it could be 26.0M which would be all right though late in production.

    If it is a late one it could have the flat end according to The Gospel of Spacefruit:

    I am fairly sure all bezels were DO90 and chrono hands were spears, but that it was on this reference we first see the flat ended spear toward the end of production. It appears that both these Chrono hands were fitted together.

    chrono hand is fine, dial not particularly attractive, looks like spotting on the outside of the case and bezel, and the movement pic doesn't look that good to me, with damaged screw heads and generally rough appearance. I personally would pass on this one but it always depends on price.
