Seller is a Sacramento based watchmaker who does very questionable work. If you buy, cross your fingers if it runs!
He does amazing work on cases, re-luming hands, crystals, etc. If you're looking for a full restoration on a movement I would look elsewhere.
Sold. Hope someone here got it? IMO, this was a steal.
Now that this one has climbed past my comfort zone...

Case is sharp enough to shave with. Uncommon for these early gold-capped Constellations. They are usually over-polished to please the "Ooooh, shiny" crown. Not this one. Movement is clean looking as well.
Word of caution...there have been 97 bids on this watch. Almost all from two bidders competing with their own "ladder bidding" system.
Guilloche dial with unusual (but not unknown) fonts. There have been a few like this on the forum.
Good luck if you decide to go for it.

@Searching... You are doing this wrong.

Not at all. I'm not planning to purchase the watch. I'm sure the watch is in good condition, original dial, and from a reputable seller.
I did piggy-backed on the post the thought of Swiss vs. American watch quality from the era.
