    I bought this watch a few days ago, and probably way to expensive in this condition. :)

    I have a question about the dial and the missing T. Do you think the T has disappeared or is the hands wrong? Is there a dial for this model with only one T?

    My next question, where can I find a new crown? I think 069SX42529 is what I’m looking for.
    I know ofrei got it but I think it’s way to expensive.
    Thank you!

    Can I use this crown 42530 instead of 42529? The only difference I can find is the crown depth.
    What do you think?

    Dial looks excellent, we have lume on the hands and topping the hour markers.

    There is also lume on the hands so I think this set up is OK.

    I'm pretty shure there have been legit watches with just one "T"

    I know it’s hard to say, but what do you think a fair value could be for this Constellation? With a new crown.

    The dial is correct.

    Swiss Made T is a legitimate marking in this time period.

    Thank you! Good news.
    What do you think about the overall condition, when examining the photos?

    An SS version in similar condition with the correct crown and a BOR bracelet with 555 endlinks (but with T SWISS MADE T) sold on Ebay for $517 a couple of days ago.

    Is there a list/page for current replacements for Omega, different parts? Is it out there?
    Thanks

    There is a web site that is not public - the Omega Extranet. You can look up all kinds of information there, but to gain access requires that you have a parts account with Omega - it's for watchmakers and those in the trade only.
