    So my wife just bought me a 321 (NICE RIGHT??)

    It is purely mint. I know the colecter that helped her purchase it, he knows his stuff and wears an non-newman 6263.

    Here is the issue. I know the bezel insert has been replaced, that was disclosed. The bracelet is near mont for a watch of this age, no concern there. It has the 321 signed movement, pie-pan dial, all the greats.

    My issue is the second hand. No mention of an upgrade from the seller, but as this is a 1967 (applique vs. painted Omega) the second hand is off.

    My question is if there is any shot in h-e-l-l that the 1968+ second hand would make an appearance here OEM?

    Pics attached.

    Close Ts dial and flat pushers tend to indicate 105.012 66 or earlier, the 145.012-67 had flat bottom second hand in the later years but never on 105.012 so the hands would be replaced as is the bezel. Any pics with the caseback off?

    Probably a 105.012-65. The chrono hand is not OEM. Perhaps all 3 main hands were replaced at the time of the newer bezel installation?
