    Welcome @Maurence
    Interesting Connie.
    Nice linen dial.
    It looks like the case may have lost its facets - which wouldn’t be unusual for an 18k watch.
    Sharper pics of the lugs would help to know for sure - a side shot would be helpful.

    So, you're a dealer, who bought a watch, and now want us to tell you about it, so that you can sell it for maximum profit? :thumbsdown:

    Good luck with that. ::facepalm1::

    Hello, probably would’ve been much more valuable WITH the bracelet...

    Yes in yellow gold you can find easy, but in white gold, i’ve see just one in this forum long time ago, with original bracelet around 15k.

    When i need help to learn, ask help, like all. I’ve bought omega Extract i’m waitning :)

    Definitely not common that's for sure, $15k sounds like a lot to me for a C-shape. The condition of your case doesn't look optimal.

    I can show you right now a Day-date white gold 18kt C-shape on Omega 18kt white gold bracelet that isn't selling around the €5k mark....

    You’re not a collector asking for help to understand what you’re buying/have bought. You’re a dealer asking for help so you can maximise your profit.

    Why would anyone want to help you do that?

    I don’t mind the OP posting - even if he is looking to sell.
    I’m happy to see unusual watches on the forum.
    (And at least he was up front about being a seller)

    Unfortunately in this case, whilst uncommon, the watch doesn’t look to be in particularly good condition - certainly a nice daily wearer.
    As for value - not sure where the 15k came from, even with a bracelet.
    C cases still haven’t come into their own. (White gold only adds a small premium as it’s still a C case)
    In spectacular condition perhaps 3k for the head?
    As is, maybe 1-1.5k?

    Definitely lost its facets.
    Value is in precious metal (and the fact that’s it’s a Constellation of course)
    You might get your price on eBay but I doubt a collector would buy it.
    I would keep it and enjoy it if I were you.

    You're a collector - but you signed up yesterday to ask how rare the thing you just bought, and want to sell is.

    Dandy.

    You signed up because you bought something, want to sell it, and want us to help you sell it by telling you all about it.

    Your motives being transparent doesn't make them decent.

    Looks like it's been given the good old swiped with sand paper trick to make it look fresher than it was :thumbsdown:

    You can tell how they have followed the curve in picture below

    Nice watch!

    But I think hour & minute hands are not original. 15k sounds a bit too high for me as well.
