    An extremely rare 18kt Rose Gold Constellation

    A beautiful watch, that I bought when presented to me from a trusted seller/collector I was impressed by its rarity, condition, and attractiveness.

    Calibre 354
    Reference 2700

    On an Omega Strap and rose gold buckle. With Omega box.

    Now this wonderful watch is way out of my knowledge base. When I bought it I was told that 18kt Gold Constellations were rare, and 18kt Rose Gold even rarer. It is very, very hard to capture the pink colour(!)

    Provenance:

    Bought by me from a well-respected member here in 2015. (I shall inform the buyer whom). I have kept in a humidity and temperature controlled environment since. The box did not come with the watch, I added it.

    Condition:
    Exceptional Condition. Appears to work perfectly and I have not opened it for fear of damaging the case. Should you open it and find something untoward send it back.

    Why am I selling?

    I have many watches and this one is one of the very finest condition, and one of the rarest. It is not one I wear, and I am having to reduce the collection so I can spend money on the house. Wife insists.


    SALES TERMS

    I only sell to refocus my collection. I am not motivated by profit (although I do not avoid it!) and so I have no reason to embellish or over describe. I have been on ebay since 2002 with 100% feedback. I have bought and sold a few watches on www.OmegaForums.net and you can find my feedback by searching my username. I am the author of www.Speedmaster101.com and so you can understand protecting my reputation is first.

    Price includes insured delivery in the UK, and will include delivery elsewhere unless you have some expensive needs.

    Returns are welcome if you don’t cost me anything to get it back to me and the watch is in the same condition as it arrived with you.

    I am a private collector who rarely sells. When I do, most of the time my watches sell very quickly, and to the first person that PM’s me with the words, “I will buy this watch now at your price”.

    In the past several people have been upset because although they are the first to reply, they ask if I can do a better price – meanwhile someone has agreed my price.

    I am not in the slightest bit offended by offers, but remember that they will only make sense if the watch remains unsold after a few days.

    Delivery can usually be facilitated almost anywhere

    Payment
    Payment by Bank Transfer is preferred for these larger amounts, I propose we both exchange ID copies and speak by phone to feel comfortable. Face to face with cash is always welcome.
