Re: FS: Speedmaster 321 CB CASE Transitional 145.012 (NOT 10

You're still wrong!

Just look for "double reference" speedmaster on the web and you'll find several cases.

As you can see below, the story of the double transitional reference has long been known and accepted by all the omega experts (also from the omega museum archive), following only few examples:

In my case, how could the Omega archive certify as a 145.012 a movement that falls in the period of 105.012 if not because it is a well known a transitional case?

Indeed the CB 105.012 serial ENDS to the number 25.448.XXX and the CB transitional that I had for sale is number 25.440.42X Exactly in the "shadow" CB's final period!

Despite this, the Omega extract confirmed that it is 145.012 exactly as engraved by Omega Factory inside this CB 105.012 Barred caseback!

Finally You talk about a 145.012 which is inside a CB 105.012 case. But still wrong! In this case the case we are talking about, is NOT a normal CB 105.012 case, but it has been barred and also rewritten as 145.012 by Omega factory, as clearly you can see
