DogLegLugs
·Hi,
I wondered if I could ask you for a health check on an attractive looking Connie I've seen on Chrono 24 (https://www.chrono24.co.uk/omega/om...n-all-steel-case-dog-leg-lugs--id18864421.htm)
A few questions come to mind:
- The dial looks good and unrestored to me, how does it seem to you? That's my number one concern.
- Would the crown be the original one or would it have been decagonal? I know there are whole threads on this, but I'm not sure what would apply to this model!
- I've seen dauphine minute hands which stretch beyond the dotted lines (which I think you call the rail track) like these ones do, and minute hands which stop roughly on the lines, in both cases on pieces which seem authentic. Do you think these ones are correct?
It's going for £1,450. Reputable seller and recently serviced. Like half the world, I've always wanted a black pie pan with an unrestored dial, but I wonder if it's time to settle happily for this instead? The price seems OK.
Any thoughts you have, including the basics such as the case matching the movement etc, would be hugely welcome. And any comments on the condition.
Thank you, I really appreciate your help.
