Welcome @jcwatchdog
if you haven’t paid for the watch and can legitimately withdraw, I would do so.
At best it’s a put together watch, with what looks like a fake dial but at the very least a very poor redial.
At worst it’s all fake.
The pics really aren’t good enough to be certain.
Any more images, such as a side shot?
You are correct that a cal 563 shouldn’t reside in a Constellation.
hope that helps.
................and this one looked nice................................
..my offer was $200 less than what he was looking for ($1150) and he instantly took it. .

IT LOOKED NICE????????
😕
If you think it looked nice then you have a long way to go before you buy a decent vintage Omega.
I'm sorry if I come across as a bit of a hard arse but that watch is a steaming heap of shit and just seeing those two photos would make any semi-aware buyer run for the hills.
The watch is overpriced by about $1000, no wonder the seller took your offer, he was probably going like this
You really need to stop any thoughts of buying and do about six months of research.

Well, the condition looked nice from what I could see. The authenticity I was unsure of, with that movement, but he had a 30 day return option, so I was planning on getting it and then having it looked at. You’re right, I don’t have any knowledge of vintage watches, and the info that I’ve found helps a little, that’s what made me question this in the first place. The seller cancelled my order though without any hesitation.
