This watch is a 145.012 with an orange hand fitted. The serial number is very close to the accepted UM range, but it is just below the previously accepted range. I believe these ranges have been superseded by experience of other confirmed UM’s with lower serials.  See here for details on Ultraman.

I am valuing this hand at nominal amount. The value is for the watch without an orange hand.

This watch is absolutely stunning, with an almost perfect Dot over 90 bezel. The dial is slightly patinated. The whole watch is very attractive. I have left the orange hand on it as I find it attractive, and it can be exchanged by me for a drop end hand at no charge.

That said, I like it as is, and the price is for an original 145.012 without the orange hand.
