Hello,

This Connie is for sale for a reasonable price. From what I can see it looks like a 70’s version with dog legs. The Schmootz on the back is a sticker.

My question to the experts would be
1. Are the lugs supposed to be brushed or polished. They seem brushed.

2. what are your expect opinion on authenticity in lieu of a movement shot. The seller has provided me a receipt from Hodinkee. To me it looks good and the case seems to be good as well, however I am no expert on redials.

Thank you in advance.

Dial looks nice and correct. Case should not be brushed so if that’s the case then it was applied later. Most importantly, I think its missing the bezel.

It looks brushed just in the lugs, which I though as well was not original finish. Do these have bezels?

Yes they do and this one is missing.
