Cheers Gator.

Mmm, 50 quid for a stainless Connie.

 

1958 Cal. 505, case 315164, ref. 2852.

 

Not really for this thread but a reasonable query and the two-line text does more usually appear on the 14381/14393 references.
The ‘experiment’ did last for around 5 years and there are known examples of other two-line text dials such as the earlier reference 2852 shown above and later references including doglegs and even 168.004s.
The one I posted above is an early 168.005 and would have been produced on the cusp of the change back to the three-line text dials.

 

The 14xxx series have 55x movement - the ones using the earlier 50x are four-digit references.

 

I don't know a thing about electronic Omegas or their value, but I'll go out on a limb and say that this Geneve chronometer full set seems pretty good to me. (His Oris Star diver looks nice too.)

I don’t mind, but why do my posts here often get deleted ?

 

The Mods are keen to bid on those watches...

 

Probably they were considered inquiries and that is banned on this thread

 

Not sure about that, they were pretty much just a link and a photo pulled from the listing. Now it wasn’t the perfect NOS example, and after I’d recommended it the seller added to the listing that the hands were relumed, but I was putting it here because of the price. It had a buy-it-now option at 650 USD and the last three sales of the same model were at 800 and 855 USD, and 800 euros.

Now before it was pulled a bid was placed and the BIN option disappeared. Maybe that meant the possibility of a bargain disappeared and hence they pulled the post, but it’d be nice to know if that’s the reason.

 

Suspicious, that watch sold on eBay a couple days ago for $700ish.

 

Let me answer that for you by showing you the title of this thread.

What about this one? Price is high but seller accepts offers. Original dial or redone?
