    The service/ restoration is getting close to complete. Here are a couple update pics. Service is being done by Tanner at tmwatchco, just waiting on a genuine omega crystal to be complete.

    Which one are you referring to?? They are all what was on the watch and have seen numerous other roulette dialed soccer timers with all of the same hands that are on this one.

    Unfortunately this one is a Speedmaster chrono hand and it is not the right one for the 145.019 that you have here.

    No surprise that people replaced the original one with what’s available and works (same caliber). Doesn’t mean it’s correct ;)

    It should be a straight white hand without tritium.

    I think it would look better with the straight white chrono hand, theres no lume to match and if thats a tritium second counter your replacing I expect you can come out ahead on the swap.

    I will have to inquire about getting a correct sweep hand then @kov.
