Speedmaster Model identification help

Well its an assembly, albeit a possibly quite valuable one - well the dial is.

It is a 105.003 dial, highly sought after, and an asymmetric case - and who knows what movement is inside, lets hope its a 321 otherwise that valuable dial might have suffered some minor damage, as its not designed for an 861 movement.

Getting it back to any sort of correct condition will require a lot of parts, and that is after you decide what you actually have. It could be a 69 case and movement with the wrong dial, or a 65 dial and movement in the wrong case.

Either way, if it were me, I would find a bezel, service it and not change anything, keep the history.

Next step is to see the movement, the number and the inner case back.

Well all this research and investigating has taken its toll! Decided I just couldn’t wait for my Dad’s watch to get sorted so needed another watch in the meantime to keep me going! Think I’m hooked!

Congrats and - this is something I’d like to emphasize - thank you for sharing these pictures after all those month. Too often, people come here for advise and we don’t hear from them again after they got what they were looking for. Which is alright, of course, it’s a personal choice. But when someone does make the effort and posts the final pictures it regularly makes me smile. So thanks for that and wear it in good health!
