Smaller? I thought these were both 34mm?

Values less? How much less - I paid 688 all-in, 18 months ago. Like that much less??

2000 for a stainless Connie? Um, no thank you lolzz

No offense but I’ll take 3 of mine vs. 1 of yours

It's the dial that's smaller, about 2mm smaller, not the case diameter.

You got your watch for a great deal. I'd value it at twice that, at least.

I have some reservation about this particular watch though, due to the relumes and the unusually clean dial. If the dial is originally that clean, it wouldn't need no relumes.

Yeah it is the super clean dial that is too good to be true. You are right. Why would they relume it if the dial is that clean naturally.

Ahh, yes, you were clear about the distinction. I had no clue about dial size differences - frankly, I was trying figure out why my watch seems smaller lol duh

I didn’t do anything creative to get that watch - just put a 1000 dollar bid limit on eBay when the auction began and let the eBay machine take care of the rest.

I feel like one of those stooges on antique road show - “oh, really?!?l” and not confident I’d ever get much more than 800 or 1000 if I sold it.

Anyway - I rarely if ever sell and unless God has different plans for me I won’t be selling watch this ever.

Thank you again for the education...

I meant it's possible to have dial that clean naturally, but relume reduces its value and raises suspicion.

Watch OP inquired went for $1775.
