    What do you guys about this watch? Is it genuine and original? What would be a fair price?

    Thank you.

    Apart from the service crown it is correct. Looks to be somewhat polished.

    Is the watch from a Danish seller?

    I saw this in person, and yes, quite polished. The dial have some issues, worst around the date window. I did bid on it, but it went for far more than my max..... :)

    Yes, the watch is from a Danish auction house.

    So are you the buyer? Or is someone selling it on to you?

    Just found it at the auction site now. I'd say that the realised price is around what I'd expect it to be so not a bargain, but not an exorbitant amount of money either. The condition would put me - and others collectors - off, as can be read from the above quote :)

    It needs a good service, so when all is factored in, it will be around $2,200 which is a lot for a "gold capped 168.004", but probably not for a "Vintage Constellation with a black pie pan dial". It's all about which way you look at it ;)

    The seller would like to exchange the watch with another watch I have plus some money. He gave approximately 1.840 USD for the watch. I just wanted to know if the watch was genuine and original and your thoughts on the watch.
