    I really hope I haven't just made a big mistake. I know the Constellation market is a minefield.

    It looked good to me - though the pictures are not great. Comes with original booklet but no movement shot :(

    Seller has good feedback and says it belonged to his father - I was drawn to the dial.

    Looks like a decent C-Case Constellation to me! It should clean up well after all the dirt is taken off.

    It certainly looks like it could do with a thorough clean! It looked unmolested and unpolished to me...

    Just make sure the movement number on the papers matches the movement.

    I don't think you've made a mistake.

    A bit worn, but a nice watch with the best looking dial for that reference. As long as that linen dial isn't patinated (it looks good!), it will clean up nicely :)

    Depends on how much it was :D
