Hi everyone, I introduce you one Speedmaster ref. 145012-67 with rare prototype dial called Racing (or Exotic) These dials are made by Omega and never offered for sale, except to a very few dealers ( I saw only Meister with a racing dial ) These dials for different reasons have not been produced at that time on Speedmaster, but after a few years they have been created with the same setting (for example on Mark 2) There are 3 types of Racing dials : - Black with red / white indexes, without professional written, oval O in Omega written, red / white hands, swiss made on the dial, applied logo, normal counters ......even if the characteristics are preceding I saw 2/3 speedmaster with this reference 145012-67 cal. 321 - Black with red / white indexes, with professional written, round O in Omega written, red / white hands, t swiss made t, printed logo, small counters ...... mostly ref. 145012-68 cal. 321 - Grey with orange / white indexes, with professional written. round O in Omega written, orange / white hands, t swiss made t, printed logo, normal counters ...... ref. 145022-69 cal. 861 These are the main features ... there are also several particular Here is my 145012/67 Thanks for reading
Intriguing. Is this in MWO? If so I really need to get my hands on a copy and read up... Going by the nomenclature for 145.012s though, I thought these would be tritium dials and hence t swiss made t, logically? And ditto for spear rather than square sweep seconds? Does anyone have a handy explanation for such oddities (aside from them being prototype).
Believe me, with Omega often discover original but strange details ... The beauty of the vintage !!! For example : swiss made dials mounted in the period of t swiss made t shorts indexes in the period of long indexes O oval in periods of O round etc. etc. ......
For ref. 145012 Racing dials there are " swiss made " dials and " t swiss made t " dials - No Professional Racing dials have " swiss made " - Professional Racing dials have " t swiss made t "
Just perfect ! Another one from your fabulous collection! I bet the next one you will present to us will be the Apollo Soyuz
Hey Fost ... I know you ? Maybe with different nick in another places ??? Ciao Antonio " Farmaco " ...it's hard get into a foreign Forum and to explain that are shown right watches ......
Very nice piece, there's either one or two other members here that have that model with the red hands but yours is the most original and clean of them by far, just looks beautiful.
