Hi all,

I consider the black hobnail Connie ref 2782-3 pointed out by user kalin91 in the "recommended watches on eBay" thread.

I think the case is rather sharp and unpolished, the dial seems legit and is similar to a watch offered earlier here
https://omegaforums.net/threads/black-hobnail-2782-constellation.143394/.

I'm not sure about the crown, shouldn't it be flat-feet ? - I found different crowns on pictures of this reference (some obviously service crowns).

The movement is the point I'm unsure about the most. Quite down / signs of corrosion? Any comments are welcome.

Price tag is quite high, about 3500 USD plus customs to EU and others. It has been recently serviced by a watchmaker who should be experienced from what I could find out.

Pictures are not optimal. I asked for more.

Long term moisture incursion has cosmetically damaged the mov't it appears.

Or severely and harshly cleaned many times.

More pix of the dial should confirm or not its' damage. Pix seem to be poorly lighted for such a strong price for some reason.

Agreed with his TexOmega’s above to his comments. My black hobnail of his 2652 Constellation.
