    [I didn't include the catalogue essays for each because they were long but you can click on the lot numbers for each, which are hyperlinked.]

    A bit surprised that this is all there is relative to the other brands. Personally, I love the puffy radium of the triple-date moon phase, Roy Davidoff posted a video of it on IG today (I think it was him) and it's gorgeous.

    My watchmaker has one of these with the gold woven bracelet, he brought it out and it had a tag of $3800 on it. I didn't think much of it, and haven't been following Connies since I bagged my 14900, but are these worth north of that?

    Bit confused
    Do you mean your watchmaker has a Seamaster Olympic or a cloisonné Connie for $3800?
    (I'm guessing the former -otherwise take a ticket and form an orderly queue)

    I'm not going to be greedy, so I'll just be taking the CK2393 and the cloisonné Connie. You can divvy up the others amongst yourselves :D
