    I read on MWO that the movement range of 105012-65 is from 22.825.xxx to 24.527.xxx.

    I found a perfect (weared) 105012-65 with serial number 24.534.xxx, dial with spaced T SWISS MADE T and double step back.
    Could it be a correct configuration?

    Thank you

    I think there is a need for some pictures here to get the thought process going ;)

    On the MWO site the production tables show 105.012-65 up to s/n 24,537,xxx.

    It looks like a beaut’

    I’m going to guess that serial range is still correct. MWO only does have that SN just slightly below that range, but I imagine that no information can be completely perfect. Perhaps others will disagree, but i’d consider that SN in the correct range.

    As soon as I see the extract, then I would accept...

    Didn't Mr. Rossier say it's in the range? I'd be OK with it. I'd still get an extract, but if it's OK by mwo, it's probably OK.

    My family owned 105.012-65 is also within this range, and yes @JMH76 is right to say that the revised edition of MWO confirms this alteration to the 105.012-65 range. It is now stated as 22825xxx to 24537xxx.

    (If I'm in breach of copywrite please let me know and I will delete this cropped picture)

    No problem regarding screen captures. As I wrote, this was a typo in mwo1 that ended with 24.527 instead of 24.537.
    Now even if it's in the range, only an extract will confirm if it's a 105.012. In the same range we have 105.003s and Seamasters

    What do you think about dial, handset, pushers, crown, bezel, caseback. Does they seem ok?

    The wide spaced T's, from my Memory these dials where first seen on the '66, but even if, that is a minor worry to have a presumably "later" dial.

    No wide spaced T's dials are also seen on late '65.
    I have a '65 produced in May 1967 with serial 24.537.XXX with a spaced T's dial.
