I received this yesterday....
I just received a Speedmaster 145.022 in beautiful condition, bought from Patrick (beerformeplz) right here. I've always wanted one, and this fits the bill perfectly.
My first post in the Omega forum, but probably won't be the last.

Looks good, I was looking at one on Monday and it was the anniversary edition in a huge timber box with a loupe, tweezers, springbars and screwdriver set.
It looked great but I had to pass on the price of $9K. Still a great watch that has its place in history
