    You took to long to respond so he/she went ahead and bought it.

    Lesson learned here is post the pictures, not the auction link.

    Watch looks good to me, but I think it's a bit overpriced.

    Obviously, someone disagrees with me on the price.

    Real. All original, even the crown. Only part I'm not sure about is the bracelet, but these were frequently upgraded.

    Any opinion on the bracelet? Is it the correct bracelet for this constellation? :)

    The watch probably would have come with a strap; the bracelet would have been an upgrade. Google the code number you have on the bracelet clasp to get your question answered.

    I'd like to see it between $800 and $900.

    I think it's a very nice watch.

    Give a man a fish and he sells his watch, never to be seen again. Make a fish do some of his own research, and he becomes a productive member of the school.

    You are correct of course. However, this looks more like a situation of buyer's remorse.

    I think our OP is sitting on a small loss here.

    Another newbie tax.

    Nice watch OP

    Prices for Constellations are generally slightly higher in the UK but for price comparison:
    a very similar watch sold at auction in the UK in Nov
    better condition dial and B&P but without a BOR
    £1100 all in (which I thought was a little too expensive at the time but immediately regretted not buying it)

    a couple of things not mentioned so far on the OP watch are:
    the hands - black inlay -but dial has lume
    rotor has been rubbing - so get the watch serviced if it hasn't been serviced already

    so - agreed that US1300 is a little over the top for the OP watch but it does have the BOR bracelet

    hope that helps

    the watch at UK auction for comparison
