Thanks, I’m not concerned about the price. Just now that I know it’s the incorrect crown I’m not sure. Although I’m sure a proper one would be easy to source

The Connie crowns are harder than most but do surface. I wouldn’t let a service crown deter me from buying a great example (although this is not a great example), on the contrary, it speaks to watch that had been properly serviced.

Alright, incorrect crown for sure but my watchmaker has a couple correct 10 sided ones so no prob there.
Otherwise what do we think kind folks?
Brutally honest is good! Haha
Overpolished a little? Any other comments?

I wouldn't say overpolished, just polished: the lugs are a bit rounded but I think that still looks OK

Maybe no bargain but that's life 😉

Yeah I feel the same way, I’m not super thrilled but I’m ok with it, I like it.
Thanks
