    hi passionate friends, I'm a new member....

    after many years of research, I recently purchased a Speedmaster 145.022-69.
    with great pleasure I would like to introduce you and with the occasion ask if everything is ok.
    thanks to everyone will participate in the discussion

    Complimenti! The watch looks great, it obviously depends on how much you paid for it, but I think that now you should just enjoy it ;)

    That DON is very desireable, the bracelet probably is a service item, but that is not an issue, and the dial looks like it has lost its tritium lume ?
    We would need a movement shot and a couple of pictures of the sides to see in what condition the case is in, but the watch overall looks great, and all correct :thumbsup:

    thanks for the comment.

    the dial has certainly been washed

    the bracelet 1171 30 circled was present in Seamaster and Speedmaster but I'm not sure it was from 1969 ... I think it's not service, maybe only later

    I think an early 1171 like the one pictured could have plausibly been bought with a watch with a 30.5m serial (late 1970)

    The bracelet is the earliest 1171. Absolutely correct.

    thank you very much...

    i'm very happy for this purchase, it was a lot that I was looking for, and when i saw the DON bezel and the clasp I could not resist.

    thanks everyone guys for all the judgments.

    I often saw 1171 with 11 or 12 circled...

    someone kindly tells me why in this 30 circled?

    thanks

    Correct, possibly. Certainly within the proper time period. Unless you know the original owner, or get an Omega Extract of the Archives that mentions an 1171, we can't say with any certainty that it was original to the watch, but in my opinion it's period correct and should be worn without doubt

    Thanks for the information...
    I will certainly request an Omega Archive Extract because the watch deserves to be complete with documents but i'm not sure that in the Omega Extract mentioned the bracelet type
    an example of Omega Extract of the Archives
