    look at this example

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/OMEGA-Speed...129886108?pt=Wristwatches&hash=item3a7881f59cPurchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    no way that is a 145-012 67. i have a 145-012 67 and there are so many differences. and the price this guy is selling this for you can buy a new 3570.50.00. watch has wrong hands, no applied logo, no T for Tritium. although the case back looks to be from a 145-012 67.

    ebay sellers looking to rip off people.

    The dial, hands and bezel at least are replaced, bracelet is a later 1171 but it does look like everything else is original to a 145.012-67, the movement is definitely a Cal 321

    The dial has a painted Ω logo instead of the applied metal logo - even I know that's wrong. :rolleyes: It's certainly a 321 as Ashley pointed out because it has a column wheel. I wonder if these watches are assembled from parts by the seller or do they buy them cheap thinking their original and mistakenly list them as such?

    Huh?

    It looks like a correct case back and movement fronted by modern furniture - possibly with a recently made 1171 too. The serial no & movement look right for the caseback: http://chronomaddox.com/romans.html

    Comparing it to my 1985 which I'm wearing today the dial, hands & bezel are identical, except mine has T marks & more of a patina on the markers !
