Hello All,
I'm a novice and need some advice, last time I didn't check here first I messed up big.
A fellow is offering me an Omega Constellation Day Date, Two Tone 1520.30 (images bellow)
He is asking $900 USD. The watch is 34 mm, quartz, naked, links not complete. Only damage is scratches (according to him).

I have a few questions.
1. Is this a good buy? Would any of you pick up this model for that given price?
2. What would you pay for something like this?
3. How much would servicing cost aprox?

Thank you for your help.

1. No, no. These are not very desirable watches and for 900 you can buy a nice vintage mechanical model
2. 1/3 of ask price. Search sold auction items on Ebay for this reference to get feel for value
3. 250-500 depending on parts

The integrated bracelet is a problem- you cant use other straps/bracelets and if it doesnt fit you will have trouble finding extra links.

Great and to the point thank you. I will pass on this one.

Nice looking watch but as was already said way overpriced and missing links could be a problem to fit the bracelet.
