This is not a watch I intend to buy, I'm just nerding over this. What do we have here? An experienced collector is 100% sure this is a franken, and I'm more in a grey-ish area. Desmond's database does not even mention this calibre in any existing Constellation configuration, which would incite us to draw the conclusion that no Constellation bore that movement. But I'm curious, so I consult the Oracles.
So, my friends, nerd with me and give me the opportunity to learn something new here, I'm sure someone will put his finger on so
mething.
Thank you!
