    This came as last minute surprise buy after another recent purchase...

    Constellation waffle dial with a rare two tone dial in cream and khaki green with yeah, you got it, pink gold markers! :D

    The case is unpolished, extremely sharp and practically untouched.. I think I got lucky..I couldn't capture the true beautiful effect of the dial. I will need to replace the second hand as I think it's aftermarket..I may have to sell something now..:(

    Here are some pics:-

    Very nice indeed. Glad to see someone is having success in the watch off-season. :)

    Does that big watch magnet you have upset the timekeeping of all these beauties ? :thumbsup:

    Yes, I believe I can. The watch off-season corresponds to the Major League Baseball on-season. Baseball on, watches off. Hope this helps.

    Summer. Watch season is mid January through March, roughly.

    And yes that second hand must go.

    Not a bad analogy. There is a little "Christmas in July" - but that might be due to the All Star Break.

    Thanks. Yes, it is really irritating me. Who would put such a hand on that dial?! Beats me..
