Tim Crosbie

Thanks for this, These appear more art that watches. Which one do you think apples more to my search? thanks again for taking the time.

Do you have the original "moon surface" box? Just FYI they are worth quite a bit of money, as they are far rarer than the watches at this point.

Reddy_Kilowatt

Hi Tim

What part of Newfoundland did it go missing if St. John’s or Corner Brook you should contact RNC (Royal Newfoundland Constabulary). If else where contact RCMP.

Newfoundland is pretty small, make a post buying Omega Speedmaster on the local pages like nlclassifieds.com and kijiji. My doubts is you won’t find it but worth a shot. Don’t say stolen in the listing... you won’t find it for sure then.

Also I’m from Newfoundland so if you manage to find it still here in Newfoundland and need someone to look at it feel free to msg me.

Cheers
Chad

1969 would make the model a BA145.022-69 @Tim Crosbie - might be worth hunting down any models with this reference that you can on the internet, and checking the LE number.

They didn't make all that many, so 27 years down the line it's either out there somewhere, or was melted down for its value as scrap gold.

@Tim Crosbie I would contact Omega and ask them to look up the movement serial number that matches #357. That way you would have two pieces of information to help you in your search.

Also, dont be put off by the rowdiness in this forum. It's all in good fun and I guarantee you everyone here would be very happy if you are re-united with this watch.

A little harsh.
Tim asked a general question which he may have posted on other boards hoping for a lead. I'm sure he would check back from time to time hoping for some small assistance.

Tim . If you can dig up any thing unique about this particular watch such as a presentation engraving etc that would help.

High end watches when stolen sometimes end up in the personal stash of drug dealers, for obvious reasons.

Did the watch just go missing or was it part of a burglary haul or mugging incident ?

If you have any relatives with sticky fingers, pillheads etc, that's where I'd look first.

1991 is certainly a long time ago, but the watch may still show up.

The watch was stolen out of my home late at night with my wallet and wife’s purse. Thanks
