What research did you do yourself?

You will probably get more participation in your thread if you make more of an effort to engage the members by providing context, information, etc. Is this an heirloom? Something you are buying? etc.

There's really no easy way to quantify rarity, and value is best determined using research on recent auction sales. Personally, I'm not a big fan of the c-case Constellation style, but if you like it, it looks like a nice watch, and black dials are certainly less common than silver.

Well,i do know that it's quite hard to find this black dial version with dauphine hands which makes the watch much more prettier in my opinion

I didn't do anything with filters or whatever,the watch is in pristine condition.Maybe you're used seeing crap all the time so it looks to you as some AI 😜

We really are, generally, happy to help but you may, on reflection, think that this approach is unlikely to get much of a response.

So, why don’t you just start again.

I’m assuming that you’re not an established collector on the basis of your questions and your apparent reluctance to engage or disclose what your worries might be about the watch, who’s offering it for sale, where and at what price. Are you thinking of buying #2 or #4 and will the watch come with a strap or bracelet?

Oh and what about some movement photos?

The case condition is hard to assess from straight on photos. Are there photos like these available to see if the side edges are sharp or polished down. Also photo of back medallion is impt.
What is asking price? Dial looks nice and brick bracelet a plus.

Online traders are now using AI manipulated images to market their inventory. Turds can now be polished, and rolled in glitter.

It's definitely not a "rare" watch. As the others have said, what is the asking price? Is it a family heirloom? And how do you know the lighting conditions of the pictures, if you aren't the seller?

You're trying to sell aren't you.

Stick around, and you will see many Constellations. And you'll gradually learn how to price things, and won't need to tell little white lies to have people do the research for you.
