Not suggesting this one isn’t legit as everything else seems in order and I’ve been known to be wrong on many occasions, but I thought the 2 line Constellation dials were only seen on 14xxx case numbers and 50x movements.
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.)

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.

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