Hello,

I’m a complete novice to watches, but I’ve come to admire the constellation pie pan. I’ve come across this one and would love some of your expert opinions on authenticity. Many thanks in advance!

Dial is totally wrong. Not sure if it is redial or totally fake. This particular case reference also noted for having a lot of fake cases.

The caliber 564 movement wasn’t introduced until 1965, but the reference was changed to 168.005 in 1963. Good chance this is a frankenwatch.

I would run away from this one as fast as possible.

Should be a cal 551 in there, not the 564. Move on from this one

Well, if the case back was to be trusted 551 would be correct, but that'd leave a pretty empty date window... 😀
