Omega 1963 Constellation Automatic Pie Pan 168.005 Cal. 561

Peemacgee

It’s a fairly good looking watch @TripFountain.

It would be useful if you could provide some additional pictures, such as inner case back, movement and the full watch from the front. ( one of the most important things on a dogleg is the condition of the lugs. )

From what we can see, the sun burst dial with onyx inserts looks good with some slight bubbling in the lacquer.
The medallion looks good.
It has a replacement crown.
The bezel looks as though it is a little soft around the edges.

Depending on the rest of case and movt $1500 wouldn’t be too expensive for a dogleg pie pan nowadays.

As you can see, the lugs are quite soft and the facets are no longer so well defined.
The watch probably looks better on the wrist than in macro photos.
( the out of focus angled shot shows the lugs better than the straight on shot)

Note- there is some discolouration to the right hand side of the dial, possibly from historical water ingress.

sales value often depends on whose selling.

Hey Omega friends!

I'm looking to buy my first Omega, and I have seen this one for sale at ~US$1500. Some photos of it attached.

Being new to Omega's, is this a good price?

Is there anything I need to look out for? Any questions I should ask before purchasing?

I don't want a lemon obviously.

Thanks so much!

Thank you so much @Peemacgee ! I'll see if I can get photos of the movement, here is a better photo of the front. Do the lugs look ok?

If the movement looks ok, how much do you think this kind of watch is worth @Peemacgee ?

Thanks again!
