Proper bracelet for 60s Constellation?

Dan S

I'm not sure it would originally have been on a bracelet, but if you like 5-row BOR bracelets, #12 endlinks will probably work.

Don’t know about #12s, but #11s should work, too.

@Jeff2855 The case looks to me like it was made in the 50s. Are you also looking for information on the Connie, or are you happy with it and just looking for the bracelet to match?

Since you opened the door, I’m going to walk in.

There are some major issues with the OP’s watch.

1. The medallion on this case is not original. An original would not have brickwork on the Observatory. That one could be from a later “C” case.

2. IMO, the dial has been repainted. The “tell” for me is location of “Swiss Made”. It is just incorrect. There are some other concerns as well.

Anyway, my point is that if you want a full original and can return the watch, you should. If you don’t mind the issues and want to keep it, that’s OK, but I would not recommend putting more money into a rather expensive bracelet.

Hope this helps,

I appreciate the comments and information. Watch criticism doesn't offend me. I have very little money in it and the watch has zero sentimental value.

That's good to hear. Sometimes we see certain watches that are not completely authentic and we wonder if we should tell. But if somebody does'nt ask about authenticity maybe it's best not to mention something about it.

Sometimes it's best not to know...

I also have some Omegas that I am fairly certain are fakes but older and should generate some good discussion. Where should I post those within this site?
