I have what I believe to be a decent 145.012-67 with a similar serial no.. 2500553** to this one. I did apply for an extract to confirm this but Omega returned the fee and as they were unable to source all the information needed... as has happened to several other people that I've read about.
Thanks for doing this. I like the journal section and the decision to put something out there publicly.
I own a 105.012-66 CB case with a serial 250xxxx and CB caseback. I think that Hodinkee did not want to admit that the speedmaster was born as a 105.012 CB case and the pushers were replaced with incorrect ones (should be 1mm shorter with fat necks). Also the caseback was a replacement and mostly likely for that reason a picture of it wasn't uploaded. I am sure that the financial aspect was to make a sale and not disclose certain things.
