Finally I got it (A Black Steel Connie with WG arrowhead markers).

qazwsx1 · Jan 7, 2021

Hi , all members of this forums. I search and read the topic about black steel connie with white gold (WG) arrowhead markers.
I know that it was one of the most desirable omega constellation.

I reviewed and summarized nice examples such as from @cristos71 , @MSNWatch and others.
(Pics were attached below)

I notice that why these black steel connie with arrowhead markers come with “only piepan dial” .
(why not dome dial?)
I try to search this dial’s style in this forums.

For examples: “Show me your 2852 connie” (14pages)
https://omegaforums.net/threads/show-me-your-2852-connie.94709/

“Vintage Constellations. Show and tell” (74pages)
https://omegaforums.net/threads/vintage-constellations-show-and-tell.19186/

“Vintage Black Dials Only! Lets see them!” (51pages)
https://omegaforums.net/threads/vintage-black-dials-only-lets-see-them.1361/

In addition, I found only black and dome dial only in “yellow gold” arrowhead markers.
(Such as from @cicindela and @Helvetia History)

If I try to find dome dial with “white gold” markers, I found only “white dial” such as nice example from @cristos71

Finally I can get my black and "dome dial" in white gold arrowhead markers.
(Notice the white-printed of this font)
It was ref.2852, cal.505 with serial no.1,542,xxx.
I think this “star dust” dial looks original with some polished of the case, Hands might be incorrect.
Crown was correct . Crystal was original too.

My wrist shot:

I try to search but I can’t find the same as mine.
(but I am sure that members in this forums have it but didn’t post such as from @MSNWatch)

In the end, I go to watchmakers and see the backside of dial. I think it was original dial.

Thanks for comments via p.m. from @mondodec, @cristos71, @hoipolloi, @Dr No, @Peemacgee, @

At first, as comment, I concern about 'M" in chronometer has slope feet (Not straight down like others "piepan dials").

But in my observation in ref. 2852, the "M" of "piepan" and "dome" dial was different.
The piepan has straight down but the dome has slope feet.
(I compare with "white dome dial" to @cristos71 , I think the same way).

Another point, I observe that if the dial was "piepan" ,then the word "swiss made" will stay by sideways.
If the dial was "dome" ,then "swiss made" will go under the markers at 6 o'clock.

However, if the dial was "piepan" but the word only "swiss" ,then it will stay by under marker too.

I'm not sure , is it correct?

Duo of original black, all steel Connie with “stardust” dial.

Thanks

The snow flake pattern on the dial makes me believe the dial is original - this mostly is indicative for original patinated dials

Nice detective work and a great find Teerapat! 😀

Here is a dome dial 2782 I used to own:

During my years with I only found one other example of a 2782 with the same "SWISS MADE" placement and dial layout. It seems to me that the same could be possible with the 2852 - I certainly wouldn't rule out an otherwise good watch because of an uncharacteristic SWISS MADE position.

Yours look all good.

Thanks @mac_omega , @cristos71 and @ConElPueblo for your comment.

I agree with @ConElPueblo , my observation about “Swiss made” position , cannot applied to other model (except 2852).

Finally, if anyone got another example of 2852 that didn’t follow my observation, please share.

Regards,
Teerapat

A roadmap on how to post a Thread asking for assistance here on the Forum.

I have a concern with the posts for the markers seen from the back. They appear at some point to have come loose or manipulated in some way.

Wouldn't stop me from wearing it.

Thanks for sharing this investigation @qazwsx1 👍

Very nice watch, they aren't common to say the least 😉

qazwsx1 · Jan 10, 2021

I try hard to find another one that look like mine and I found one in this forum since 2014.

This picture not clear for “originality” of this watch
but I think it was

original dial too.

Note the slope feet of “M” in “chronometre” and position of “Swiss Made” that look like mine.

Thanks
