    100% original and authentic Tritium 'step' dial for Speedmaster ref's 145.022-69 and -71.

    Fantastic dark tropical chocolate colour and nicely aged tritium hour markers.

    Not refinished repainted, treated or relumed in any way.

    Condition is very good. There is a slight mark near the 7 marker and a fainter one near the 2 marker, but they are quite hard to see by eye when fitted in a watch and I have not tried cleaning them so they might improve. Otherwise dial is superb with no other marks that I can see. The dial has both rear feet intact and is correctly stamped 'Singer' on the rear.

    I have taken the photos below in natural light with both a light and a dark background. I have not altered the photos in any way other than cropping them to size. I would say the dial colour is a dark chocolate and becomes more and more light chocolate with brighter light.
    The last photograph shows it fitted to a watch among other Speedmasters and gives a good indication of how it compares to similar dials of a similar age - it's easy to spot!

    I am looking for £1,450 gbp including worldwide delivery. Imo the dial would increase the value of your watch by much more than that amount if your current dial is not great.
    I have many ref's here on the forum and on ebay.
    Thank you to OF for the space.

    It's easy to spot which watch the dial is fitted to in this group shot of 60's Speedies:
