No idea about the cost of a pusher, but that is a lovely speedmaster you have there.
Hi all,
I finally got around to ask my independent watchmaker to have a look at replacing the missing chrono pusher for my pre-moon 145.012-67. I was a bit surprised when they quoted me EUR 200 (£180) for a used pusher. Is that really the going rate these days?
Any feedback appreciated.

After a bit of internet research I think I need a 086ST0053 pusher for the 145.012. Can one of those in the know confirm?
The 086ST0053 can be had NOS for $54 at Ofrei in the US. Anyone know where to find in Europe to save the wait and hassle?

Not sure about omega, but a new pusher from breitling was £45. Though that was for a 2012 watch and they also insist on a full service to install it so ends up pretty expensive!

Nice watch but IMO I am not surprised about that price. I'll try to find you the exact price from omega
Thanks for the replies so far, very appreciated. I spoke to the watchmaker again this morning and they are telling me they are only planning to replace the cap rather that the whole pusher. I find the 200 Euros more than ridiculous for a used cap.
Any idea where I can buy a pusher cap only?

Cant help with pusher cap but you can get the whole pusher on chrono24 for £115. Still a lot of money but cheaper than £180

Edit: Serial number is different but may be worth asking seller if they can get relevant part.
In case one of the members has a pusher cap knocking about, I am interested to buy it.

Ill see if I can get one but can't promise
Available from cousins for £42.75 ex vat
Watch parts branded, omega, omega case parts, then put the case number in for all available parts.
Or just search 086ST0059
Also, just to say, personally i would always replace both at the same time, and take the movement out, ultrasonic clean the case and replace seals etc.
It's worth it while the watch is apart, and you need to remove the old loctite residue before fitting the new pusher.

As I remember, Omega specify two pushers in this timeframe for use as replacements now - they may not be identical to the pushers fitted in period but are what they use as replacements:
145012 calls for pusher 086ST0007
145022 calls for pusher 086ST0059 (this is the modern pusher as you noted and should apply up to watches sold now).
One difference is in the length as the 0007 is longer than the 0059 but, that's not to say the 0059 won't work with a 145012 case and I do know that some companies list this - just checked Cousins and they list the 0059 for both cases. Externally, I think they both look the same and both are available from Cousins. Without seeing the watch in hand, I couldn't confirm which one your case is using and I'd suggest checking with your watchmaker.
Very nice watch and I assume you sent it in for a service due to the chrono creep?

Thanks to evryone who contributed, especially to Normunds for sending his pusher.
The watch came back yesterday with the new pusher cap and I am very happy.

Ah OK, it was only in for a pusher.
Looks a really nice watch.
Cheers, Chris
