    Well done. you beat me to it....I was trying to scoop it up for under 200.

    The rotor issue put me off going any higher as I have another patient in the sick bay with rotor issues and didn´t want to end up with an epidemic of non-winding-winders:D

    Sorry to have scooped it up a tad higher:rolleyes: !
    I have some spare movements available for these beauties (parts/project watches), so it should be manageable to get it back in 100% function.
    It is already en-route to watchmaker Christian WatchGuyUK as we speak. In a few weeks I hope to be able to get it "home":).
    I hope the waffle dial is in good nick underneath that mangled up crystal;)!

    I hope so for you, the case looks in good shape so fingers crossed on the dial.

    Can't wait to see the final result :thumbsup:

    This arrived from Australia. Me = extremely happy, wife = extremely shocked by price and very unhappy. Even bought flowers to take the top off... Oh well. :whistling:

    [​IMG] Omega Constellation Chronometer f300 from "hockey" (Phil) on this Forum. I must say as my first purchase on the Omega Forum it was an awesome experience. Phil is a dream to deal with and I had to share this with people, I just wasn't sure how to put it on the positive feedback part of this Forum. Thanks again Phil.

    does buying flowers typically accomplish this with the wife in Australia?

    A quick clean this morning and have to admit well pleased. Gold case completely unmarked, what was I suspect the original strap a bit past it so a bit of croc with the Omega buckle.

    Yes Master, I am but an apprentice yet. But I DO try, I didn't even reveal the actual price but the tell-the-wife-adjusted one. The flowers was beautiful by the way and a full $70, picked them myself ::rimshot:: .

    And I am on my 4th, so soon my friends... soon my skills will be far greater than any of you imagined :D muhahahahahaha
