Ah, ok. The 62 is a direct link to the production date!?
It is a really beautiful connie. I have not so much experience, but in my eyes the dial is correct. Im not sure with the crone. The edges are quite sharp. The patina is decent... i would like to buy. Is 2500 - 3000 € realistic?

··Purrrr-veyor of luxury cat box loungersThe pics really aren't good enough to asses the condition of the case (esp the lugs) properly but they do look pretty good from what we can see.
Yup, crown looks good to me too.
There has been some rotor rub but it looks as though the rotor and bridge may have been replaced.
There are scratches on the case back from opening it and some nibbles on the lower right lug
The dial looks correct for the period (missing text dial) but it does have quite heavy spotting, which may look better or worse 'in the flesh'.
Some (@hoipolloi ) might say the lume dot instead of an index at 3 detracts from the watch but that is personal taste.
Regarding price - this depends on where it is and who is selling it -you're probably in the right ball park
If you like the watch you've posted, have you seen this one up for auction in Milan in a couple of days time? - similar condition dial but with an exquisite rose gold case.

note -its not 1966 and it won't go for anything like the stated estimate - and you would have to get more pics to asses the rest of the watch properly before bidding.

you know, when I looked that the similarities of the dial, it did cross my mind but I convinced myself that the OP watch was YG.
(The dates both being set to 28 might be the give away 🤦)
If the case is as good as it seems in the auction listing, then it's certainly worth looking at if the spotting on the dial isn't a problem.
So, @Franzjoni where did you find your pics of the watch?
