Yes. An outstanding timepiece for sure.

And finally this 105.012-66 case back on a 145.012-67... Simply to die for!

 

How about this real bargain:

I am afraid i might have been rather misunderstood. I do not promote this specific watch as been an "outlayer" as you call it.
MWO indeed states that 145.012 movements start around 24066XX but my own personal feeling is that this is NOT 100% binding.
I do agree that an Extract of the Archives might help a lot in clearing the situation.

I did check my archive regarding 145.012 photos with 24 Million serial number movements but no extract of the archives unfortunately.

The fact that one can see perfectly legitimate 105.012s with 25 Million serials, while at the same time 145.012s with 24 million serial numbers do exist (as MWO clearly states too), might be a hint to the direction i am pointing at.
