·Well the fact there is no inscription on the back stating First Watch On The Moon makes it "pre-moon" even if it was made and sold after the moon landing. It's a good looking watch likely a 145.022-69.

·Appears to be a pre-moon 145.022-69 as far as we can see from the photos. It looks pretty nice except for the case.

·Appears shot in a softbox, judging by reflections, and while that’s certainly not conclusive, it looks like a sale listing.

·Thanks for the responses. It wasn’t running very well when I purchased it so I sent it to be serviced and they did a full cleaning and servicing plus they replaced the crystal which is why it looks so clean.
I tried to remove the back case with the proper tool and it’s on so tight, I didn’t want to risk scratching it so I thought there might be another way to determine if it is pre-moon, but it seems like the consensus here is that it is pre-moon?
And yes, this is a photo box that I used to take the picture, I have an eBay store so I considered selling it but this one might be for my collection

Indeed pre moon is a rather crude nomenclature to denote that the caseback doesn’t state first watch on the moon. Some argue it’s more about the date.. but assuming your caseback is correct it would be a premoon 145.022-69 most likely.
Perhaps the service folks noted the model on your paperwork?
