If I am not mistaken some constellation models dont come with the decagonal crown , its signed anyway thats what matters the most for me
The crown doesn't even look like the correct replacement crown. (Too big)
However, the wrong crown wouldn’t stop me buying a watch if it were a nice watch. (you would want it replaced with at least the correct replacement crown - which I think are only around €50 -because that one doesn’t seem to fit properly)
The case is pretty good but it has had a life and acquired a few scratches along the way, they so not perfect by any means and you would have to see the dial in person to judge how degraded it is.
You would also need proof of a competent service as there are clear signs of rotor rub and you’d want that fixed.
if the dial were okay then, even unserviced, €510 would be pretty cheap for a dome dial dogleg Connie nowadays.
With a service it would be a bit of a bargain.
All depends on that dial.
Hope that helps.
Haha. That's all up to you!
If I would be at the beginning of my collectors 'career' I would have bought it at that price (probably). Now I'm looking for better examples and I'm willing to pay more.
Good luck!
Are you set on a Constellation? If your budget is tight, you might be better off looking for a 1960s Seamaster in better condition for the money.
