Here are mine: Big Red Sigma and of course a '68 (waiting on an incoming DON to make it right).
Wait a minute, that's not speedy... 😁

Nice watch!

I have recently received my Extract of the Archives and, interestingly, despite having a higher serial number than some of the others shown in this thread, it has an earlier production date.

Might as well post this one too...


What a difference a day makes ...... only 24 hrs ....

One small jump for a day in the week ... but one giant leap for serial numbers... 26554.8_ _ to 26554.9_ _
For a 145.012

Wow pretty sure that’s the earliest transitional serial we’ve seen!

Yes that honour still rests with @oddboy. I wonder what the last date was for allocating 321 serial numbers and what the actual case and movement manufacturing dates were.

My mistake. I was thinking yours was a 145.022-68 transitional but it’s a 145-012. ::facepalm1::

you make me want with your -68st
I am in the opposite situation of some of you: I have a DON bezel and I am waiting for a -68st to come to me 🙄
