I've spent the last 18 months shamelessly, flaunting my 'Brown Dial' Omega Speedmaster 105.012-65 like a 'middle aged, Parisian Tart'. It's back in it's little red service case now... quietly getting more expensive.

Only what I've heard. I never saw the need to be wasting good beer money on that sort of malarky. The ugly, wobbly ones seem only too happy to donate to a charitable cause.
In regards on pre-moon Speedmasters, I just found a interesting list on the Smithsonian website : https://airandspace.si.edu/collections/search/omega speedmaster
Thats very interesting...Wally Schirra's Gemini 6 watch is a total Franken (105.003-64 with a professional short indices stepped dial and an 861 movement (2911xxxx, so a 69 by the looks of it)) ...
