This popped up today. I'm going to try and meet the seller soon. Looks ok to me.

 

It's the 14900 62 that gets faked alot. Now not so sure.

 

is it my screen or the dial has some yellowish stains?

 

Yes and the lugs should have more chamfer. Though hard to tell from the pictures.

 

Nice piece! Hope for better pics if you buy this watch ;-)

 

case looks correct to me

see Desmond's site for details of fake 14900s -note especially the angles on the case body

fakers didn't usually go to the effort of adding the wonderful pattern to the case back
the Omega symbol looks odd -but there are many examples of 'squiffy' printing in case backs

-but is something going on with the right hand lug in the bottom pic? -worth checking out if you are going to view it in person
fonts correct
cal 551 is correct for age
18XXM is correct period
indices are a bit oxidised
some bubbling on the dial
alternative crown -I won't say incorrect -but more usually seen on 14381 cases
BOR bracelet is a nice bonus

nice Connie IMO -depends on the asking price
I wouldn't pay top dollar due to the oxidation/bubbling
EDIT
lumen hands
can't see any lume on indices -but may have been removed
but lack of Ts not an issue at this period

 

the crown is wrong and I think it has too much stain on dial.
that seem like it has some leaking somewhere and please take a look in movement closely
good luck

 

Going to go look tomorrow at noon. Price is good, $650, or seems so to me.

Edit to add: Seller says he bought this in the mid 80s from the original owner. I know, buy the watch not the story. I will try and look it over carefully.

 

good luck for your new watch.
otherwise, You can wait and see in this sale forum.
it always has great deal.

 

Factor a service into your costs
As Hugo says it looks like it needs it
Good luck with your purchase

 

It might just be the picture, but the marker at the 12 looks ruff. The dial above it looks discolored also.

 

Funny - I was just looking this one over yesterday on Craigslist! Good luck with the transaction.

Cordially,

Art

 

This looks a lot better in real life. I'm happy.

 

Damn you stole it.. That would fetch a grand plus on eBay.. Its beautiful!!

 

Bonus! Bracelet must still have most of the links. Had to adjust the clasp back but it fits!

 

I do have a question about the clasp spring pin. The spring pin seems barely long enough. Is this normal? I'm going to guess not. The one sticks out flush past the clasp sides. The adjustment one does not. What size do I need here?

 

This is a pressure fitting, you may be able to carefully press it flush, suggest removing the bracelet from the watch head prior to attempting

 

congratulations on your new Connie!

 

The right pin sticks out past the clasp sides. The left one seems too short like it barely engages the clasp sides. I'll measure this but thought someone might know what size to get here.
