    hi guys!
    Totally overlooked the ending time on the bay for this constellation and missed it. I was wandering if there’s some imperfections for the dial. Common for just the existence of just one T for the ‘T Swiss T’ how is it there are 2 extra markers?

    I am also looking for similar one with the cross hair,
    What would be the reference that I should be looking out for with the hidden crown? Thank you much guys !

    In which case a small reminder.....
    No cross-hair and only one pie pan - which by chance is also the only one without its original hidden crown.
    (But the replacement crown really doesn’t stick out that much - and is much easier to use)
    @kpaxsg The pink gold cap has the correct pencil hands for a late 60s Connie.

    Only recently acquired a couple of .004s
    One with the wrong box and (correct) papers
    And one with the right inner and outer box but no papers
    (Both with the hidden crowns)

    Nice dial but those lugs have had a tough old time.
    And I think ALL of the hands are too long.
