Well I have just made a cup of tea and sat and watched this lovely video on YouTube.

Now, I know that my 105.012-65 has the 321 movement, (here it is).....

... and when Simon Freese opened the case back, I was able to see it, ticking away, in all it's glory. However, actually watching this chap work on this later (861???) Movement was fascinating.

I have a new found respect and admiration for the technicians at Swiss Time Services UK, watchmakers such as Simon Freese and others that, generously, share their expertise on this site.

If you love Omega Speedmasters, you will enjoy this video! Hopefully this link will get you there. (If not just search the title of this thread, above)



Here are a few quick shots I took of my television as I watched. Just to give you an idea of the wonderful detail in this video:
