    Hi guys
    Can I get views on this? I've been offered it for $2600. Bezel seems reasonably sharp. Medallion in good knock. Movement looks fine. Dial looks original. Is this a luxe with a gold dial, or are te photos weirdly exposed?

    Saw that one on ebay. Seller's pictures look desaturated. I think watch is ok - ok condition, worn but not bad, dial to me looks original but does not look like a deluxe dial to me, and as to the price seems to me to be the going rate for these types of watches. For me, it's all about condition - if I were buying a YG connie especially this model, it has to be in better shape even if the price is higher. I would tolerate this level of condition but it has to have something else going for it - say an original black dial or it is in 18k rose gold.

    Doesn't look like a luxe dial to me. Dial would be darker, but it's still a decent watch.

    Definitely not a gold dial. Mike's assessment is right on.​
