Hi everyone,
I really appreciate all your help to tell me whether this omega is authentic or not because I cannot find another on the web.
Any other info about it would be appreciate it.

Thanks

Fran

I was also following this one on eBay ...... are you the new owner?
Good news the watch is authentic but it’s not without issues.
The dial has quite a lot of deterioration which can be somewhat expected for an original black dial.
Hands are too long, crown is incorrect, case has been polished and movement is dirty/mismatch of colours..
I would get it serviced if I were you.

In addition to what @Noddyman has said, the bracelet looks a bit weird. Would like to see more photos 😀

The non-matching colours in the movement (I only see the rotor having a different shade than the rest) needn't be a serious issue and is probably just due to a replaced part.

The wrong hands will probably be the biggest problem.

Yes, I am. It is my first Constellation and I liked a lot when I saw it. Would you change the crown or the hands? and I need to service it since it certainly has some dirt.

Thanks Noddyman!

Thank you ConelPueblo.
The issue about the hands leaves me a little sad 🙁 Is it looking too bad? so it is quite sure someone changed the hands of this model, right?

Thank you!

Well, the hands should only go as far as to the minute/seconds track or the hour markers depending on which hand we're talking about. Finding the correct ones will be difficult or at least not very cheap. But it will be worth it for the improvement in looks 😀

Thank you so much for the info and you are right about the bracelet too. It’s not omega authentic and neither is the clasp I have just ordered my money back with all my pain but it has so many wrong things and it cost me €1200. I hope I have my money back.

I hope so also.

It’s a shame because original black pie-pan Constellation dials with pink gold accents are extremely difficult to find.
