For sale is my overall very good condition 145.012-67, with original box and extract, and recently fully serviced.

Movement (321, type A3): fully serviced in May 2024, in excellent cosmetic and functional condition. -4 to +8 seconds/day across 4 positions. Super clean.

Dial (stepped, applied logo, tritium; type B3): in very good condition, the only imperfection being a tiny amount of missing lume at the very top of the 12 o'clock plot. Otherwise a very pleasing patina, and a pristine black to the dial.

Bezel (DON/DO90/DD70, type B1): in very good condition, no major metal showing. The only imperfections are a few small marks, for example near the 500 marker. No text significantly degraded/obscured. It also appears to be developing a slight blueish hue!

Case (asymmetrical/twisted lugs, type B1) and caseback (single bevel, type A4): in very good condition, with no obvious signs of polishing, no major dents/dings/chips/etc., and with normal fine scratches for a 50+ year-old watch. Add $100 for the Spiralwinder sapphire exhibition caseback.

Hands (painted baton/stick, drop-end chrono seconds, tritium; configuration C1): in very good condition, with a patina slightly darker than the dial. The small seconds hand appears slightly glossier than the others, indicating that it may have been repainted at some point, but this is only visible at certain angles under 10x magnification.

Crown (B2) and pushers (type 4, wide and tall): in very good condition. Unsure whether they are original or service, but if they are service, they are not new/recent ones. If desired, I may be able to source a flat-foot crown, but per Moonwatch Only, significant numbers of 145.012s have been fitted with the wide/32-tooth crowns, leading them to conclude that they could be original, so that is my assumption here.

Glass (category A, hesalite): in very good condition, with etched Omega logo. No major scratches that can't be buffed out.

Add $150 for the Uncle Seiko 1450-style bracelet. The leather strap pictured is not included, but I could also probably include a Delugs leather strap if desired for $100.

Asking [was $12,603] $11,900 net. My rationale is Speedmaster101 very good ($11,500) + $902.50 service cost + $100 for the box + $100 for the extract. But if you think I'm off, and are interested in the watch, feel free to let me know where/why and make an offer accordingly. I know there have been some competitively priced 105.012s etc. posted recently, but I think this watch overall offers a more compelling package, given all of the small details.

I accept Zelle, PayPal F&F, and bank wire. I'm located in Northern California and open to face-to-face or shipping (terms TBD). No returns, unless it can be demonstrated that something was grossly misrepresented.

I just hit 200 posts on OF, so I don't have any references here yet, but I can provide references from other platforms. Please ask if you have any questions. Thanks, and have a great day!
