    Wondering what the Omegans think of this one. Mainly I'm interested in the pachyderm band... like albino koala, so hard to find these days.

    This has been relisted many times at a slowly escalating price. It's a pretty uncommon watch that was the predecessor in style to the constellation hooded lugs grand luxe models just as the centenary was the forerunner of the constellation line in general. The dial condition though I believe is the main reason it hasn't sold.

    Yea, we've discussed this a couple times before. The last listing that was asked about had the watch at $3299. Hmmmm, doesn't sell at X dollars so let's add a few hundred! Solid logic to that strategy. :rolleyes:

    Not exactly my cup of tea, but the elephant strap fascinates me. Looks supple. Maybe it's baby elephant.
