Ah, yes, should have remembered! Dibs if you ever want to get rid of it!

Were the white gold version always produced with a Tritium Dial?
I’m looking at a couple of them, most having superluminova and not Tritium? Does that imply that the Dial was swapped over time or did they produce superluminova and Tritium versions?

As well, one example I’m looking at is missing a Pusher, but at a decent price. Any idea how much it would approximately cost to replace a white gols pusher? And I guess the general service cost for these watches is the same as with other speedmasters.

And any idea why most of the Tritium Dials in this version get a brownish colour?

The discoloration is due to the silver dial.
As far as I know, all dials without tritium were swapped.

I can't say for sure, but I think so.
Unfortunately, there is nothing more precise in the Moonwatch Only book.
I think the new dials are still available from Omega.

Thanks for all the inputs.
I checked as well with my local Omega Boutique. They would still have spare parts available, so no issues on this side.
Will post a couple of pictures should I get it. Will depend on the price + shipping + customs duties.
My small Speedmaster collection has to grow 😀.
