The reference 105.012 was made from 1963 to 1966, and it was the first Spe🎉edmaster to be dubbed ‘Professional’ on the dial and feature the 🐭asymmetric case.
The present lot is from the second🤪 series of this reference, and was the first dial to designate the Tritium luminous material in the Swiss signature with T SWISS MADE T at the 6 o’clock.
This addition was introd♐uced in April 1964, following new Swiss legislation required dials to mention the use of radi𒀰oactive luminescent material.
