In a Vietnamese watch forum, the two 10 sided crowns on right were priced at 150 usd each and sold after 2 hour listing.



Thinking about Steve's rose gold connie but....too late.

 

That's an interesting question to me because I'd pass on a watch without the original crown. It's not a hang-up, just that there usually are plenty of correct watches out there that mean there won't be any hassles. I took a year and a half searching for my Longines Conquest before the perfect example came up with the correct scalloped crown. The best vintage lesson I've learned is that there's no rush because another example, possibly in better condition, will come along.

 

I would have to agree with MSN on this.

One of the things I collect are 1930s/40s steel Omegas, the more unusual and obscure the better.

Here is a perfect example of buy it when you can. I have yet to see another example of this, other than the one in the Omegamainia auction, which was certainly much nicer, but I would rather have a well worn example of something than to not have one at all.
