Terrible redial, wrong crown and, although not shown, I'd wager real money that the case back medallion is polished out of existence -- and it already has 50 bids on it. The seller also can't seem to decide whether this is an Omega Constellation or a Universal Geneve Compax. Moral: do your homework before buying, not after.
Where’s the link? There used to be a link. I’m going to own this.
You know Greg, people on this forum are so judgmental. If someone finds that watch beautiful, then we shouldn’t bother them with facts and information about what it should have looked like or what it should be worth.
You would think this is some geeky forum for collectors who value originality and get mired down in details or something. Geez-a-whiz.
You’re right, James. Actually I was trying to discourage others so that I could buy it. You just can’t trust me. 😀
In all honesty, the case isn’t too bad- I’ve seen worse.
