C-Case Constellation

tropicalpatina · Feb 28, 2021

Any good leads on where i can find a good c case for every day use? must be unpolished and an original dial. im open to suggestion, obviously ebay etc i am loooking but if anyone has any leads please PM me. I would also be open to to a standard Connie with coffin or arrowhead markers, again as a daily wearer

Whilst your post is verging on a WTB ad (but just about stays the right side of the line) I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Connie with coffin markers and I’m intrigued to know what you consider a standard Connie to be.
Pics of what you are after might be useful.

I am new-ish to the forum. I do not mind moving the post to the correct forum. I thought the connie is just a nickname for any constellation that is a non c case

you'd probably be better off posting in the vintage Omega forum.

All Constellations are nicknamed ‘Connies’ (including c-cases) but there are numerous different case references with different dial types, different markers and date/non-date versions, so no ‘standard’ option to the C-case.

if you’ve seen a particular style you like, you can post a picture

Patience, Pal. Me first! 😁

And yes, I likewise think this verges on a WTB post but hey, more power to you! FWIW, eBay sellers, particularly from Japan, seem to have cornered the market on C-Cases. I’m looking for one a little closer to home but depending on your location, this may be an option.

Queue starts behind me. 😗

Keep your eyes on the FS thread; there are a few posts for C-case Connies that come up. I have been lucky and snagged one or two from fellow OF members...most recently @Toishome!
Gratuitous C-case pics:
