Thought I'd share a new arrival - a nice condition 2652 - 12 SC w/ a rare hobnail dial. I'm not a big fan of capped watches, but if rare enough, I'll live 馃榾 It's rose gold, btw.



It's a one family watch and if I'm lucky the seller might dig up the original buckle....

Thanks for looking.

I'm not a GC fan either but I could VERY happily live with that.

That is exceptionally pretty, I remember Kyle had a couple of these and I always admired how the dial picks up the light, and with the arrowhead markers just brilliant.

I had a couple of Seamasters with the square waffle dials but never a Constellation. This is a nice piece! 馃榾

Beautiful, but not just "hobnail", surely it deserves to be called "Clous de Paris".

I like the caseback, too bad it doesn't get seen when worn.
