    This one will be interesting if it goes the distance go gauge where Constellation pie pans like this are currently at, its not perfect my any means but there aren’t that many 18K gold 7077 bracelets around fitted to pie pans, @cristos71 is among the very few that have a nice example, I’m including the photos here for future reference also

    I was looking at this one this morning and almost flagged it with a warning. The bracelet is a mess being a mix-match of parts, some of which are correct and others of which I have no idea but look to be 20mm. I agree the starting price is low enough to still make it a reasonably attractive buy, but it won't end at a representative amount for a correct 2853/7077 combi

    This area of the clasp is all wrong too and doesn't look like Omega made. I think the only correct part of a 7077 bracelet are the endlinks and first couple of 18mm bracelet links and the clasp cover. Here's how the inside clasp should look like.

    Yea I made sure to put it in its own thread rather than in the recommended thread for that reason, it’ll be interesting to see what the final price is and what happens with it but I’m not a bidder either.

    I hope for the buyer that the bracelet tests good for gold, at least then you have a SPP Connie and a decent amount of melt

    From the listing, this is what the seller says the buyer said....

    "NOTES FROM BUYER/AUTHENTICATOR

    My recent watch purchase was your omega watch constellation pie pen deluxe 18K gold. After closer inspection of the watch and bracelet it has been determined that the caseback has been glued and does not close properly. In addition the bracelet is not an original omega and has customized pieces. It also failed the pressure test, these details were not disclosed or outlined in the listing by the seller. I would not like to continue with the purchase and I would like to open a return to issue a full refund of my original payment method thanks."

    So definitely one to avoid!
