Constellation 14381 Hands For Factory Luminous Package

Good day all. I recently acquired this Constellation 14381 circa 1959. This particular variation came with a special order factory luminous package that included the radium lume dots that you see on top of the arrowhead markers as well as a special set of hands.

Unfortunately, the hands on my watch have been replaced. The correct hands should look like this:

In particular, note the hour hand with a much larger area for lume than the standard Dauphine variety:

Anybody have a set of these hands that they would be willing to sell or. alternatively, anybody know a source where I might find them? The watch in question is a caliber 551. Thanks in advance for any assistance that you can offer. Regards, -Greg

Bump. Hope springs eternal. 😀 A donor watch would be another possibility.

I have a pair of hands, hour and minute. I put them on a 14393 pie pan and they look correct in lengh.
Unfortunately, I don't know if they will fit on a 551 or not. I don't have a 551 without dial so I cannot check for you and I hate to pull the hands out of my watches just trying them out.
If you want to try, I can give them to you free of charge. You pay shipping.




Please look at the pictures carefully and make decision.

I'll PM you. Thanks!

Still looking, unfortunately. A big thank you to hoipolloi for donating a set that I hoped would fit, but sadly they do not. Anybody else have a set or an idea of how to procure them? I’m already looking for a donor watch in rough shape with the correct hands, but nothing affordable so far. There is good news, still. I was able to source the correct crown and low profile Omega crystal for this variant, so things are improving. It will be a stunning example if I can just find those hands!

Bump! Still looking.
