Hi I've been offered this watch , and unsure if it has a pie pan dial. It's calibre is 354 and appears to have it's original bracelet. Thanks in advance.

Technically not a pie pan, just a two tone dome dial. They look similar.

Well, apparently according to my takeaway from a recent debate, yes it is.

Scratches head......what got me asking the question initially is the inner looks a complete circle but most examples have a jagged edge to the circle.

I remember the debate, but was there really arguing that a circular minute track could be considered a pie pan dial? I mean, this isn’t about an optical illusion - there are no 12 sides to a circle. 😁

Not a pie-pan dial (as it is generally acceptedly by all but dyed-in-the-wool pedants - and latterly Omega) but it could be a nice Constellation all the same.

If you could get some decent in-focus pics of the dial, with hands away from the text, you should get some considered comments.

Hi, thanks for your comments, unfortunately the present owner is having the watch serviced as I write.

It looks like a nice ref. 2652 - nice original dome dial, decent case and replacement crown.
