what's the reference on this? do you think the fact that the crystal is cracked and thus would need a new, non-original crystal takes away a lot of the value from a collectors standpoint? I have been looking at some of the 168 ref 60s Omegas in SS to purchase and this could be a suitable solution at a good price for me. I'm just not sure if I should wait and pay more for a better condition case/crystal which will last me longer.

A crystal is easily replaced, and it's a part that wears over time. Nothing to worry about too much. You'll have to know for yourself if you like the case. Looks like the watch has been worn, but not abused - a condition that seems suitable for regular wear. Note though that these aren't exactly uncommon, quite the opposite - they really aren't hard to find, should you desire a better condition - as long as you're ready to pay the premium. 😀

When you say "won't go cheap", how much do you see this going for? Tempted to have a snipe 😀
It won’t be cheap, probably over $1k usd, really nice examples in the UK have been going at a premium of late but I have never regretted overpaying for an excellent example rather than buying a discount version, it stands out and tends to hold its value over time

Haven’t bought from this guy yet and he may be a member, but I have to say he gets some good quality stuff in

UK Watch - Another really nice clean example of a gold plate Geneve, great case, dial and hands, one of the nicest to be listed in a while

Will not be cheap, but its an excellent example of a Cal 601 Geneve and deserves to command a premium

Just over 4 hours left on this gold plate example, quite a nice one at that.

@dsio this forum creates addiction.
The value of this community is priceless.
I bought my first Constellation thanks to you, and it won’t be my last.
In Rome we say “tanta roba” as amazing 🥰

Nice mate is it the C-case day-date in your avatar? They’re a great piece that the market still doesn’t fully appreciate

This will be an artful buy for whoever it ends up going too. Calculator in hand for shipping, shipping to service, service, getting it home, and duties. The thought of a deal is always tempting but it will take a older, wiser, and more skilled hand to bring this deal home in a way that makes sense. If anyone here takes the plunge I would love to stay in the loop as it should be a saga. Bonne chance to anyone willing to take a risk on what I think is the peak moonwatch reference.
