·Hi OF!
It has been more that a month now without any auction reports..😁
But here is one that I followed!
It is a 145.022-71, with serial 31.6 mil.
Stepped dial, the Omega logo is painted, short indices etc.
And a 1039 bracelet which always is a bonus, even though it looked tired.
This one was of course on many platforms, so it must have gotten lots of attention!
I had to ask for more pictures and info, and the auction house was very helpful,
they even took some time to shoot some videos on the watch!
I was told that the dial was scratchfree and with no oilspots/blemishes.
The lume was full with a nice colour.
Not sure about the hands, the lume was darker (which is normal), but with uneven edges and uneven color,
and the white had discolorations and where a bit ”bubbly”.
The bezel was faded, and had some scratches and marks.
The case had nice brushings left, but with a watchmakers light and easy polish.
Case back was clean/no marks.
24 tooth crown, and dirty pushers, so original maybe?
Movement looked ok, some marks to the screwheads, but nothing weird.
The estimate was 3780 € / 4095 $ including the premium.
But the pre-biding was up to 5545 € / 6000 $!
And in my opinion - Way too high, so I didn't make any masterplans on this one.
But I followed the action on the auction!
😉
And the watch got lots and lots of bids, and it ended at 6300 € / 6500 $ including the premium!
Pretty strong results considering that the watch could (at the best) be a Good/Good + (depending on the dial)!
Well - enjoy, and please do comment!
