    Hi OF members,
    Following several exchange of posts at the thread “Untouched 18K Connie” created by Robbyman, it is suggested by respectful memebrs to open a new thread for the subject unique Connie. This is to avoid hi-jacking the thread of Robbyman and for ease of reference for future readers.

    For reference, Robbyman’s original thread “Untouched 18k Connie”: https://omegaforums.net/threads/untouched-18k-connie.117509/ Thanks to Robbyman.

    According to a senior OP member, there have been so far 3 examples come up in the Forum. To start with, here is mine, details:
    Model: 168.004 ss Constellation
    Dial: silver “sharp edged” pie pan (NOT the common “flat edged” pie pan)
    Cal: 564
    Serial: 25,66x,xxx

    Hi, @Peemacgee @TexOmega Please feel free to post yours. (With more pictures, please!)

    Of course, all other members are most welcome to contribute their examples.

    @CLA05 please re-read the thread title. Probably best to delete your post!

    @1jansen I think you have mistyped your movement serial no.

    My notes have this one with a cal. 564 movement. It is a solid 14k gold case.

    Caliber 564 (quickset date)
    I don't know the movement number (never open), when I open it I refer you. I think 18k gold

    Finally got around to adding mine.
    For an interesting storyline about the Dutch Jewellers printed on the papers ( kindly supplied by @Shabbaz ) you might like to read the original late 2018 thread.
    https://omegaforums.net/threads/constellation-168-004-with-a-cal-564-movement.86829/

    To summarise,
    in the OVDB, Omega don’t include the Cal 564 movt as an option for the 168.004, only the Cal 561.
    Having been replaced by the 168.010, which can be found with the 561 but much more commonly with the 564, it might have been reasonable to assume that .004s with a 564 had had their movt replaced at some point as there was no hard evidence that this combination ever existed.
    Until I found the one pictured below with the crucial evidential papers and hangtag.
    Now we have 5 listed here, which still makes them damned uncommon. interestingly all pie pans
