Hi guys ,

I find this watch really nice and seems great for me .
Would you recommend it ?

 

Hi,
looks good to me, IMO:
Reference meets movement
dial is original
case looks good
matching crown I think
clean interior

Be aware of the indices at 1,11,(stains) 5,6,7 (light reflections ?)
hands lost lume

Curious what the specialists say

 

has signs of wear on the case and some dial deterioration. not too bad. all depend of the price

 

+1 ...my main concern is the dial. It's original and aged. The facet rim of the dial seems to have major peel off of lacquer. If you look at the markers at 1h, 5h, 6h, 7h and 10h, you will find the remains of lacquer at the feet of the markers. Fortunately, the center body and scripts are intact. Overall a nice watch in a reasonable wear original condition.

 

Font wrong (no serifs, non-matching letters) and minute markers pointing at all sorts of angles. Redial.

 

Any higher authority / Connies experts out there ?

Your expertise please!
Original or redone dial ?
Thanks in advance.

 

If you look at another example:

nothing jumps out as very wrong. The pic however is bad, and the details in the fonts (as the serifs) cannot be seen. A better close up pic is needed.

 

Still curious

I hope this will be solved...

Even the different Ms in "Omega" and "Chronometre" are there

 

OK, now I’m really intrigued. Quite a bit of debate here. I’m looking forward to learning even more from additional observations.

(I’m not yet a Connie guy...I’ve heard it’s just a matter of time; 166/165 Seamasters being the gateway drug and all).

 

The n is wrong...

I'm getting totally paranoid about these watches...

 

The n is correct

+1 for it being correct but bad pic so can’t see the fonts properly.
The minute markets are a bit hit and miss but agree it’s a bad cleaning job.
I quite like the case -reasonable condition

 

Now I'm confused... here are 3 genuine dials with the correct n. These n's are different then the OP n. What am I missing? Were the n's being written differently during certain production years? Or is it just picture quality? I'm in the dark here...

 

This n is a bit different: https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-constellation-2852-crosshairs-and-arrowheads-cal-501.29068/

Looks like there were several n's at the time

 

The n from cristos:

 

The OP n:

 

I'm going to collect something else. Like stamps or pottery..

 

Yes. 3 different n's, not 2. Seems there was more variation than I thought. Interesting. This is not an exact science, you know.

 

FWIW, I agree with Kyle. People are seeing spooks everywhere. Chillax.
