Dear Forum,

I would like to ask you a few questions.馃榾

As we I have posted in the last thread, I have a Speedmaster Moonwatch with a caliber 861 with 455*** serial number from the 80's and it is cased into a CB case from 66/67. The case and the movement don't match, and I don't want to damage my CB case by wearing it every day.

I am thinking of putting the CB case away, and I would like to put my Moonwatch 861 caliber with Moonwatch dial into a Mark II case and wear it like that until I source an age appropriate (80's) Moonwatch case for cheap.

I bought a Mark II 145.014 Racing Dial case for a really good price. It does not have pushers or a case back, and I am not sure since I have not received it yet by post, but I think it is missing its tension ring.

Could you help me what is the part number for the 145.014 pushers. Are they the same ones as in the 145.012? Do you think the ones I have on the CB case be fitted onto the Mark II without any modification?

Do you know where I can buy a tension ring for my housing? (does it have a part number? Or does it come together with a new a new crystal? Can you assemble the movement without the tension ring?

Do you know if the 145.012 861 caliber movement ring fits into the Mark II?

Looks like you need a bunch of parts...

069ST43059 | STEEL CROWN

086ST0005 | STEEL PUSH-PIECE SEAL X2

079LC08610A | ENLARGMENT RING

076TZ0003 | INNER BEZEL 1450014 - maybe - not sure it it's there or not.

090ST1257 | CASE TUBE L. 6.20

112ST1450014 | STEEL BACK

72208601106 | WINDING STEM

72208611974 | CASING CLAMP LONG X2

And a bunch of seals. The crystal does not fit with a tension ring - it is held in place with O-rings and requires special tools to install.

Personally I don't think this was a good buy...

Dear Archer, would you happen to know the part number for the pusher tube or for an alternative? Or does the pusher bolt into the case directly?

Thank you!

The tube is included when you buy the pushers...
