    Although this isn't for me, would any members like to chip in with whether they would get it? I'm no master of recognising Constellation flaws :thumbsdown:

    Crown appears original. Hard to do MOY test unless zoomed in.

    I thought the case back looked odd...it does seem to match some other basebacks on Google though.

    Ta! Well that was quick - I couldn't really tell that it was worn. When you mentioned it, I can now see the stars are losing their...'embossed' effect. Thank you!

    Gotta say, it seems odd he is focusing on the box so much, and has provided really crappy photos of the watch.

    Also, no photos of the inside case and movement.

    Maybe I'm being paranoid but is the 59th minute marking too close to midnight? Compare it to the 1st minute.
