·No one inherited a cool watch this week, so I guess this is somewhat interesting...
Not correct but i didn't post

·...Or you could purchase my Speedy 145.012-67 which is in the right serial range..(But unfortunately the Extract states its a NAAFI delivered watch..)😁
Anyone knows if non-ultramans within the range have been observed?

·Just saw it on ebay. 😁 I thought that all those within the range were ultramans. Are you sure of yours not being originally an ultraman?

·Very interesting to see this Ultraman was manufactured on exactly the same day as my watch..6th June 1968..
My Ultraman was produced on the next day June 7th, 1968 😀

·This extract is the 2nd one that I've ever ordered.. My first one was for my 105.012-66 CB.. This is also a NAAFI delivered watch.. Maybe the Omega Museum staff got things muddled up and I m missing on having an Ultraman Extract??

·...so then that leads us to the next controversial question : what are the odds that you 3 blokes all got 3 'different' watches manufactured 1 day apart?! 
Maybe there is something wrong somewhere...

·Not quite sure I understand your point..Please explain? As I see it, there are 2 confirmed Ultramans and my NAAFI Speedy all produced within a couple of days of each other.. Nothing out of sorts there, is there??

....and on June 5th 1968, a guy walked into the Speedmaster production area and said "Hey guys, I found this old box of orange chronograph hands in a drawer. Do you think you all can use them up or should I pitch them?"😀

·Just kind of crazy that they ended up with everyone on here...50 years later!
@Tri-national-man thats my point exactly 😀 Crazy odds. Apologies for being obtuse. No harm meant.

·There wasn't any logic in the sequence the movements were assembled into different watches - I don't see any problem for having two different watches (it's still a 145.012 BTW) being produced the same day, apart if they have the same serial number 😗

·Hmm probably the odds are quite high. Assuming 145.012-67 were produced only during one year (or 2, wouldn't change much). The odds of having 2 produced the same day would be more than 1/365 (like the odds of meeting someone who was born the same day as you) if they stopped in weekends/bank holidays. If I am not missing something. Although the odds of having them now, and having them here may be lower. 😁
