Serial in the 24mil range
caseback marked 105.002-62
TSwissT dial
So what is it? a 105.003 with a wrong caseback or a 105.002 that omega put together w parts left?
Any opinion and advice is welcomed. Asking price for this is $7500

 

Probably

 

With a TT dial? and 24xxx movement number?

 

thats the part that confuses me. esp with its 105.002 caseback. like it is so much rarer than the 105.003, nobody in the right mind would swap it.

 

To me it looks like 105.003 with wrong case back. 105.002 dial doesnt have T markers, 003 does. Serial is in range of 003 -65. I could of course be completely wrong, so see what others say.

 

Everything looks ok for a 105.003 (probably -65), except the caseback.

 

Pushers appear to be the larger (4.5mm) found on a 105.003. A 105,002 would have the smaller 4mm size. Worth getting a measurement if you can

 

At 7500usd is this worth?

Is the crown correct? My guess is no, although I do not not know when Omega changed the logo style.

 

Attractive and characterful dial. I'd buy it.

 

Pretty sure all straightlugs, even the later 105.003-65's, had the old style crown.

 

Crown is correct. But not original. Flat foot was original

 

A 105.002 caseback might be easier to trade. If that's the only thing out of whack, might be worth a shot. Not sure I'd hit $7.5K for it myself, but these are getting harder to find. I'm just not in love with the dial, and that's probably harder to correct than the caseback.

 

Should be doable for a 24m serial with an extract.

 

$7500 probably isn't a million miles away. It'll be harder to find a .002 caseback than a .003, so you have a good bargaining chip if you're willing to undertake it.

Edit: $7500 isn't a million miles away, once the extract proves its a 105.003 movement.

 

This is a decent shaped Ed White and I don't think the .002 caseback really takes much value away. Not that hard to get correct crown.
So, I think $7500 is fair assuming movement is in good shape.
