Saw this on IG, very excited to see if it lifts the Omega market at all.

I’m quite surprised to see the level of ‘patina’ he was willing to accept, also quite a few ‘incorrect’ crowns, bracelets etc

A couple of things I noticed after my first quick look through the catalogue, but I think lot 32 might might be a bit of a Frankenstein? Mid to late 40s movement and dial in a early 50s ref.2657/2494 case that usually had a cal. 351/ 354 / 352Rg.

There are also two ref.2366 & 2367 that have pitted cases and worn looking movements but suspiciously nice dials.

I noted a lot of polishing seems like most watches were prepped for a non collector audience.

Yes. For people who read and believe the flowery bullshit descriptions and don't know what they're looking at regarding the actual watch.

A few redials in there too
Lot 15 was one that stood out to me as potentially re-dialed on a quick look through; were there others that were especially apparent?

Lot 19 is a 2367 chronometre with wrongly restored dial.

Lot 27 is described as ref 2367 (the case is) but the movement is a subseconds type as found on 2364 and 2366.
The dial is an aftermarket replacement
It is a put together piece and I advise to avoid

Excellent comments here show the amount of knowledge present on OF.

Are the estimated values optimistic? Or in line with what is offered?

What is the point of mentioning « Sei tache » ?
It is some kind of marketing and meaningless for the collector

I'd say mixed, I mean the Franken Connie and some of the other shabby ones will probably come in within estimates, but there are a lot of gold pieces, some on gold bracelets, that are wildly under estimated.

A couple examples...

Lot 17. Black waffle 18KT Constellation with arrowheads and ( non Omega ) 18kt bracelet €3-€6K



Lot 29. White gold 18kt/diamonds C-Shape Connie on 18kt bracelet
€3-€6K


I mean really...

Noticed the dial due to the small sub seconds

The problem is that it’s difficult to rely on the descriptions for any of them given the many problematic listings.
