    I've not found anything quite like this in my searches so I defer to any opinions here. Dial seems very fresh looking given the age.

    Exactly, they're pretty common and have quite good water resistance for their era along with solid movements so the survival rate for these is very high compared to other models.

    Thanks. It was a good bit higher than other Cosmics I found but none were quite like it, made wonder if it was an unusual example. Beautiful watch but I'm a tightwad.

    It's been serviced according to the ad so take that into account. That's worth a little something, I'd imagine.

    That's the seller from whom I bought my first Constellation whose provenance and authenticity I now doubt. Look at the lettering on this dial, and note that there are Ts yet no lume anywhere, despite claims that the dial had its original finish and original hands.

    I would not buy anything from that seller. His watches are noob bait. Redials and replated movements. Everything non ferrous is plated rose gold colored.

    The famous Mumbai coloured dial I bet ( haven't even looked at eBay add)

    Research and keep looking at watches, three watches you have asked for help in 7 posts
    It's a 17 Jewel movement it says it on there.

    Share with us what cal movement should it be

    Since we're talking Cosmics, I came across this 2000 (auction ends in under 2 hours :D). What do you think? Service dial because of lack of T's? I also think the hands look weirdly short. I like this particular lug configuration: the 2K's I came across before were all cushion cases. It's been recently serviced by an omega specialist that I trust. What should I reasonably pay for this? Thanks!
