Hungry for some waffles! Not looking too appetizing right now馃槻 !
Let麓s see how this one cleans up:
54967
BTW: Came with box and papers! (Including COSC certificate).馃榾

Well done. you beat me to it....I was trying to scoop it up for under 200.

The rotor issue put me off going any higher as I have another patient in the sick bay with rotor issues and didn麓t want to end up with an epidemic of non-winding-winders馃榿

Sorry to have scooped it up a tad higher馃檮 !
I have some spare movements available for these beauties (parts/project watches), so it should be manageable to get it back in 100% function.
It is already en-route to watchmaker Christian WatchGuyUK as we speak. In a few weeks I hope to be able to get it "home"馃榾.
I hope the waffle dial is in good nick underneath that mangled up crystal馃槈!

I hope so for you, the case looks in good shape so fingers crossed on the dial.

Can't wait to see the final result 馃憤

nany8uje.jpg Omega Constellation Chronometer f300 from "hockey" (Phil) on this Forum. I must say as my first purchase on the Omega Forum it was an awesome experience. Phil is a dream to deal with and I had to share this with people, I just wasn't sure how to put it on the positive feedback part of this Forum. Thanks again Phil.

A quick clean this morning and have to admit well pleased. Gold case completely unmarked, what was I suspect the original strap a bit past it so a bit of croc with the Omega buckle.

Yes Master, I am but an apprentice yet. But I DO try, I didn't even reveal the actual price but the tell-the-wife-adjusted one. The flowers was beautiful by the way and a full $70, picked them myself ::rimshot:: .
