    Hello!

    First question : Just to improve my Speedmaster skills (it could be interesting for my watch as well) Do you know until which year Omega sold/produced the Speedmaster with a DON bezel ?

    For ex : It is ok for a 145.022 69(/ST) to have one (right ?) but if the 69(/ST) was produced in 71, does a DON match (in term of credibility) with it ?

    And second question : What is the difference between the 145.022 69 and the 145.022 69ST ?

    Thanks a lot ( I checked on the forum and internet, didn't find for the DON bezel)
    As

    Speedmaster101.com

    Or moonwatch only has the info you require.

    Off the top of my head It’s around the mid 30,xxxxxx where the DoN was phased out.

    Hi @AS69 I am curious about your Avatar pic. It is a U2 pilot selfie it not. Is this a photo you found on the net? I ask as we have an active U2 pilot as a contributor on here (whose name I can't currently remember) who has posted very similar pics of himself, some with him showing off his Speedmaster.

    Thanks for your informations guys. So if mine is #3131xxxx there is no reason to look for a DON bezel ?

    It is actually a SR71 Blackbird pilot, Brian Shul. (Really interesting article btw : https://www.vice.com/en_au/article/...czT_7kdvYpf7P-NvwqBd7uDIFbW5WJ23lCKydpE6T95tw )

    And some pictures :
