    Hi All

    I know it is not much, just a couple of badly taken pictures. A guy is selling three watches in an auction. One of the three watches is a Speedy. But there are not a lot of pictures and I was not able to find the reference just looking at this pictures?
    Any idea what reference the watch is (to get an approximativ idea about the value).

    thx a lot for the help.

    According to the dial and the bezel, I would say it's a 145.022-76 or -78.
    Nice dial. Nice faded "ghost" bezel as well ::love::

    But a flat foot crown and this mid case is correct for a 105.012-66CB.

    Thanks a lot for the inputs.

    Hmm.. so is it a 105.012-66CB or a 145.022-76 or 78? Quite a difference in a potential price :).

    in that case the hands are not original and I guess tje bezel as well not right?

    Wathever the reference, it has to be valued as parts.

    If you have to ask yourself this, you should maybe forget about this watch... ;)

    It is at best a 105.012-66 CB with all of its valuable parts replaced, or more likely is a complete franken.

    That TiTanRAu though.... ::love::

    Lovely faded bezel as other have said, with these you can go either way either mint of faded. Everything in between not so much for me. I also have a soft spot for the TiTanRAu as @abrod520 has, a hidden gem that one . A fellow Omega lover who has not discovered this wonderful forum, wich i guess is a good thing for any potential buyers of the pieces. Sorry for the sorta of topic respons , my vote goes for 145.022
