Well over priced imo dispite all the extras. That said where would you find another :)Originally Posted by uwtc

most of his watches are rather overpriced.. but as you say.. where would you find another so complete?
Well, they have a Doxa 300T listed at double it's everyday value, so i'd guess the Speedie is aiming very high too. Lovely piece, must admit :)
It is a lovely looking piece but I don't know that it should be called "New Old Stock Condition" as there appears to be some damage to the bezel at the 60 marker.
I was just going to point that out too. Would a identical replacement bezel be available?Originally Posted by Stanford

I don't think the Omega replacements are identical - although very close, as far as I can tell, the positioning of the dot by the 70 isn't quite right.Originally Posted by ralphy

I think my answer is ......no
Very high price - probably a punt on the back of the completeness etc.
But I suspect there will be an Omega nut somewhere that will buy.

Simple really
Too much money!!!
A nice watch and certainly rare to get all the bits with it. However, i wouldn't twice the price just to keep all the bits in a drawer. The bezel looks original and collectors seem to be getting more fussy about these things.
I would not worry about the complete package and get a cheaper one without all that, probably less mint to so I could actually wear it :D
Stunner for sale on VOF @ £2.5k...still too much IMO but a real peach.

True, it would be a great piece to keep but I doubt I'd ever want to wear it!Originally Posted by dutchgray
too expensive imho
you can if you look find one at half that price.
as always buy the seller first
By far too expensive! This model with box/papers in mint condition can be bought for less than 3000 Pounds.

Someone buy it! Maybe they woudl do a deal - you just aren't going to get another are you? What price a boxed one go for?
It's just a matter of time...
Sorry, I should have said, not boxed/papers, just a really nice example.Originally Posted by Omegamanic

Collectors item.... very difficult to compare the price to a "normal" vintage Speedmaster.
Personally I would never buy it... there is a lot you can buy for 4700, and a Speedmaster wouldn't be my first thought.
Just my 2cts

Well its certainly rare to be in such a complete package. But that doesnt justify more than doubling the average cost. On its own, a 145.012-67 should be anything from £1500 to £2500 depending on condition and what it comes with. The one on VOF (and lots of other sites) is very nice indeed, but its still a overrpiced IMO.
Hi Ben,
I guess it is worth what someone is prepared to pay, traditional market rules. Personally I think £2700 -£3000 is fairer.
Kindest Regards.

On the sales corner?Originally Posted by ben4watches
Sold it for less than £2000. on here (You'll note it's a 145-003, now find another of those!)
OMFG ! thats UNDER-priced surelyOriginally Posted by Gunscrossed
A 145-003! :shock: The late C Maddox apparantly only ever came across a couple of those and only photos at that! I can't believe you let that one go!!!Originally Posted by Gunscrossed
IMHO no, given the current market and I am sure that you could negotiate down a few hundred quid

With the SP reference it would have come on a strap when new.
I love my own vintage Speedy (105.012-65) but I know I would have to pay more than the £1,000.00 it cost me albeit 4 years ago.
