    Evening all

    My final sales post and the conclusion of my clearout I am listing this remarkable constellation jumbo, which is quite a rare reference 168.010

    It's a long story but my obsession has got my brother in to collecting too and as a result his friends have got in to watches

    One of his mates asked me to find a Connie, I did (this one) he commited then backed out and this has been sat doing nothing for too long now

    The watch is a belter, its never refinished and is very sharp, the case is lovely and 35+mm with semi hidden crown. There are a couple of tool marks on the case back which could easily be removed


    The movement is in excellent condition with no loss of plating and dates to 1966/67

    The dial is beautiful with onyx markers and damage free and the hands are original to the watch, there is a small crack in the crystal at 6 but it doesn't detract and isn't noticeable

    I have had the watch fully checked and fitted a new old stock (and bloody expensive) period sharkskin and period acier buckle

    I am selling the watch at cost plus the health check and band so looking for

    £815 firm, shipping via RMSD or international signed for is included in the price

    Payment via BT or PP gift

    Thanks tom
