    I've been through cousinsuk and ofrei but failed to find a second hand for piepan constellation. (10mm length)

    Is it completely obsolete and out of stock? Any alternative part idea would be much appreciated!

    Thanks! :)

    These are not easy to come by, it took me two years of searching to eventually find one. It’s possible they are still available through Omega, a watchmaker with an account might be able to help.

    It will look thick and ugly. Serious collectors never accept that.

    In the wait of finding a correct hand, I have no problem with a modified one. Not sure how serious a collector I am, so that might be the reason.... :)

    Now, if someone have a correct rose gold second hand please let me know :)
