    Hi all, poisoned after my first constellation and I am looking at acquiring my second piece :whipped:.

    Need some help and feedback in term of this. Have been looking for pie pan for a few months and saw something that looks decent. Any feedback is highly appreciated!

    Dial looks original. Hands correct. Crown original. Case back medaillon is polished (especially stars). No case back picture but guessing it's a 168.005. Movement is right. In my eyes, it looks good.

    It could be the lighting, but the color of the rotor looks quite different from the rest of the movement, which sometimes indicates a replacement part. This needn't be a deal-breaker, and as I said, it could just be the angle of the lighting.

    Edges aren’t crisp, ie a sign of over-polishing.

    They are addictive but try and stay clear of a heavily polished case. There are plenty out there, just need a little patience.
