·Hi everyone,
I'm in South America right now, and I came across an omega constellation from a vintage jeweler that I loved. I know so little about watches that I thought maybe I could post here to get some help before making a huge purchase. The jeweler wanted $3800 for this 18k gold constellation but I think I can negotiate down to $3200. I unfortunately only took pictures of the front (see below), but can ask the jeweler for more photos of the movement/back/whatever you think is necessary. I know the band is not original.
I don't need everything to be perfect. Ultimately I want to wear this watch, so it doesn't need to be the collector's perfect constellation. But I do want to make sure I'm not being taken advantage of given my limited knowledge and am not buying a fake.
