I ran across a Speedmaster 321 dated 1963. The serial number I found on it was 24014105 Iam unable to find any kind of list that puts the serial number to that year. Also it comes with 2 boxes one is white and hinged the other is black and white.

 

Look at the chronomaddox website or speedmaster-mission

 

Don't forget the date tables are only accurate to +/ - 2 years. Photos would be helpful.

 

Here are a few pics of the watch

Bezel looks okay to me, second hand is definitely incorrect.

Some context from his site. http://chronomaddox.com/omega/other/mailbox1.html

 

Oops, missed the dot over 90 distinction.

 

Michael, your watch has service bezel - tall tachy, dot next to 90, next to 70. These were used from ~1969 until the mid 90s. The Maddox watch has a modern bezel. Dot next to 90, below 70, squat tachy with accent over the e.

 

As far as serial numbers go, 24.014.028 and 24.014.108 are both 105.003-63s that were for sale at some point on ebay.

 

I wish we knew what they did in the factory back then. It seems that they take a series of movements(24.014.xxx in this case) and manufacture a particular watch (105.003-63). There are just certain series of movements that went into the CK 2998, at least according to a post I read on the internet (must be true). Most of the 2998 s/n that I have fit this rule. I don't know which comes first, the cases then the movements or vice versa, but it doesn't seem that each watchmaker reaches into a bin and pulls out a movement for whatever watch they are making.

 

I'm in. The website can fund the trip.

 

If the bezel is later wouldn't it say Professional on it.

 

That's the dial. The bezel is the black ring that says tachymetre.
