The Constellation black dials seem to retain their original color better. At least I have seem a lot more of them where you would swear they were a redial. I don't mind myself thinking that as much about SMs.

 

Here is my New Old Stock black dial Constellation, Calibre 505:

 

Or the both of you cancel each other out and I get the watch. Remember, I have no black waffle dials anymore.

 

Great!
Ref. 2852?

Nice but I don't think that's a NOS.

The crown's color doesn't match .(new replacement, I guess)

 

That's rather nice. Just for knowledge sake, did the gold versions typically have less defined bezel?

 

Because of the camera angle and lighting, the bezel gives the impression of not being sharp but I assure you it is sharp as the day it left the factory. This is case ref 2852, Calibre 505 and comes in orignal box with all the paperwork. The watch is 100% New Old Stock - it has never been worn and has been stored in its box since the day it was purchased. It has only been exposed to daylight a couple of times. Everything about it is NOS including the band, buckle and gold spring bars.

 

My 18K Omega Seamaster Chronometre Calibre 352Rg with original black dial:

 

What I see from this angle, the second hand is a bit thick, looks like it was made for a dome dial, cut to fit the piepan dial.



and if I could see the logo on that crown then I would say it's an original version or not

Best.

 

But the hands are short, in piepan style to fit the minute chapter

 

here is a absolutely pristine and black 2998-1 dial from 1960

 

I'd characterize this black dial as a slow moving one...
