··Vintage Omega AficionadoCan we see the outside of the back?
Inside of the back looks like a common fake.

·Wow..I still have much to learn. When I saw the first picture I thought that is no problem with this watch. After I read the comments I understand that I do not know vey much about this Constellation. I am sorry that is fake.

·Fake dial, wrong non-chronometer movement and also looks like a fake case.
I’m afraid you’ve bought a dud.
As above, return it if you can.

··Sunburst dial fanHi @augustusron,
Well, there you have it - which is a shame. I hope you didn’t pay too much. You haven’t posted where you bought it or how much you paid.
Best to try to get a refund but if you can’t, if you were to try to sell it on, you’d have to admit that it’s a fake or franken.
So, if you can’t get a refund, and can’t get your money back re-selling it, you should probably treat it as a 'stylish' expensive 'beater' and wear the hell out of it. 99% of the people who see it on your wrist will have no idea it’s a fake

·Couple of thoughts from fairly new Omega collector and I have to say the pie-pans are not my specialty. Nothing in the watch is original, that I can see, wrong typeface, wrong movement and the caseback is not detailed and markings look too modern.
But: do we know that the case and dial are really counterfeit ie of modern making? I would think that making a pie-pan dial from scratch requires a little more special tools than a flat dial would, for example. The printing is wrong, that thing is clear to me. Also the case (to me) just looks like it's been polished too far.
I mean is it financially feasible to manufacture these parts for this kind of watches? After all, they are not in _so_high prices compared to some others.

There are many many fake constellations on the market and have been so for decades. especially the 14900s and 14902s

··Oooo subtitles!This watch was a rookie error but the immediate red flag is a dial with Ts but no lume. The 5 row BOR bracelet is also widely faked and not normally seen on the dog legs so that is also suspect.
This watch looks ok from 3 feet but is a disaster up close. It fails nearly every test.

·I called this watch out on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/OmegaWatches/comments/xd3g1s/omega_pie_pan_constellation/
I think I felt OP about to make such a purchase and wanted to prevent it, wish OP saw my comments
I'm 99% sure the seller knows what he has and what he does, he says every factory (rep factories I guess) makes it differently, at that point I didn't want to pursue further interaction
