·I agree with you. Yours specifically isn't scary, as you've shared it with us, but paying big bucks for an ultraman is scary if it's possible to make something like this!

·They still have to fit the movement number range, and if I'm not mistaken you can get an extract for them.. So don't buy any old "ultraman" just because it has an orange hand. 😀

·Ya apparently you have to actually send your watch to Bienne to get the full description extract, which is a pain. But I would certainly do that before ever trying to sell an ultraman. The one selling at bukowskis tomorrow isn't even in the accepted serial range, let's see what someone pays for that

·From what I know, some Ultraman were not recorded on the extract as "Fitted with special orange hand".

·Personally, that would make me think twice.. If it was in the expected range, maybe. But outside the expected range and no details in extract, then I dunno. Is it an ultraman just because it has the correct hand?

·To pay the significant premium they have gone for in the past, 100% would want to see an extract mentioning the orange hand.

·Mine is within range 😉 should I order an extract for fun? Maybe it has an orange hand in the past haha!

·I would be curious as to how the process works when determining if an extract receives the "orange chrono hand" designation or not

To make sure the Ultraman you intend to buy is really an Ultraman, you'd better ask someone who has one to put it aside and compare.
There is not only the chrono hand and serial to check.

·Somebody just paid a lot of many for a 145.012-67 with an orange chrono hand...
https://www.bukowskis.com/en/auctio...n-kronograf-armbandsur-42-mm?from_language=sv
The commission at Bukowskis is 22.5% so the price actually was 12874,75 USD...

·Actually decent -67 example. Could be worth that much even without that hand. The hand was just the distraction.

·Well, Speedmaster101.com has 11500 USD as the value for a 145.012-67 in "Collector" condition, I doubt that the one at Bukowskis could be considered to be "Collector", or?
It looks really nice but there is just one thing. Without the extract form Omega it's just a nice 145.012-67 with a red chronohand, but no Ultraman.
But the 145.012-67 is anyway a great looking watch, with or without the red hand.

·I don't have the MWO book, but according to Speedmaster101, an Ultraman should have a 2607xxxx serial.
That was correct for the one on auction, right?

·No, MWO says that the interval is 26.076.8xx to 26.079.7xx. The one at the auction has 26.072.352 as the serial number.

My updated Ultraman project, using an "Ultraman-spec" hand. 😉 don't ask me where I got it.
This is pretty disturbing frankly
