    Hi all,

    Among various watches I had and still own, I got a Speedmaster 145.022 from the 90's.
    I finally sold it as some other watches got my preference on my wrist.
    For any reasons, I started to look again to Speedmaster's 2 weeks ago and started to document myself on the different models.
    It quickly appeared that I would like to go for a step dial. Digging a bit further, my choice went for a Spanish 68ST transitional. Full matching, even the 1039 but condition was so so. This is where I decided to go for an applied logo ref, so 68ST or 145.012.
    Meanwhile, I informed a friend who deals watches that I was looking for a pre-moon.
    A day later, he shew me an almost perfect 145.012, without 1039.
    I finally said yes and will get it tomorrow.
    I am quite impatient to get it on my wrist !
    Pictures will follow tomorrow but my avatar is already the actual watch. :)
