Picked this up among some parts and was pleased to see it on arrival, to my eye it looks ghosty. Any thoughts?

it's only sitting on the watch for example and is next to a nice black dn90 for comparison. Cheers guys.

 

No not yet, few more years in the sun.....

 

It's definitely getting there...may take a while in the UK

 

send it over. the Australian sun will speed up the process...... kind regards. achim

 

Definitely would be marketed as ghost, certainly nicely faded! Looks great

 

In my best Crocodile Dundee voice:

Thats not a ghost bezel. Thats a ghost bezel.

does bleach also do that?
here's my ghost speedy. I know, astonishing.

 

I think others have posted that the use of bleach would also discolor (or discolour for my Empire/Commonwealth friends who can't spell) the bezel insert holder.

 

put another shrimp on the barbie mate

 

So are we saying potential ghost? Partial ghost? Baby ghost?

 

Looks like a great "pre-ghost" example...

 

Those are stunning! Sadly I'll never own one of these unless I stumble upon the find of a lifetime

 

If it needs a good home, I have a 145.012 that would welcome it with open arms
