    Just took delivery of the Constellation Calendar from Ireland. I'd been after this in the WTB section...have to say its a beauty...Dial almost looks redone! The dial is an off-white/ivory colour and lovely black onyx and gold marker.. Even came with its original buckle (says the seller..)

    Here are some pics:

    Hi Alex, do you really think, the dial is redone?

    It is an original dial - Alex was saying it is so nice it looks like it was redone.

    Thanks Peter! Yours is lovely. I have to say these are really nice constellations. Didn't think I'd like it until I had it on my wrist! I was in debate between your crown and the octagonal crown which I've seen on some similar references, yours looks good though, and discreet. Is your dial cream or white in some lights? Mine is a sort of Ivory but you can't see from the pics!

    My dial is cream in all lights with a hint of Ivory. I put a clover leaf crown on my Calendar and i didn't like the looks of the watch with it on.

    Hi peter-g. Wonderful watch. Maybe you get the original ten- sided crown at www.ofrei.com.
