Mickey did it again...

 

Sometimes we buy a watch that's better in person that the scans that made us buy it.
Fortunately that's the case with his latest Speedmaster - a correct, original 145.022-68.
Because bought it from a watchmaker, it came with a complete, sympathetic service.

Also included is the original Omega logo crystal and trapezoid logo, original version 1171 bracelet with 633 end-clips.
Because of it's late serial number (277xxxxx) there's a slim chance this bracelet would /could have been married to my watch.
I was told by an Omega Rep to ask what it was married to when I submit my request for a Letter from the Archives.
Maybe I'll hit the lotto and they will be able to tell me. I'll be sure to let you know if I get lucky.

Hopefully you'll enjoy Mickey's new/old watch as much as he will smile

I've been told by both the Omega Customer Service Rep I spoke with and a member on another Forum, that if you request this specific information with your request for a Letter, you may get lucky. From my experience sitting next to my Uncle Art, a Patek tra... 

My understanding is the same, which is why . . .

. . . it doesn't matter so much in my view whether a bracelet was originally sold in conjunction with a particular watch. Case in point: my first Mk II, acquired . . . . . . from the first owner's brother, came with its original bracelet. The second Mk II...
