    Nope, avoid.

    At minimum, it's a redial, but I suspect more shennanigans.

    What's wrong with this piece? Too late for arrowhead markers for Cal 564?

    From what I can tell from this read:

    http://users.tpg.com.au/mondodec//Counterfeit_Omega_Constellation_Cases.pdf

    - hands are inconsistent with the hour markers
    - facetting of the lugs (both sides) is missing
    - star and 'Constellation' are too close
    - star is not in line perfect
    - photo's show the bezel not very clearly, but seems too rounded instead facetted

    I might recommend everyone who is enthousiastic about the Constellation to read and enjoy the Constellation Collectors Blogspot! It is a well written site with an enormous (as in 'huge') amount of facts, pictures, in-depth knowledge which is evolving still!

    Yes, definitely. It's a frankenfake.
