Recommended Vintage OMEGA WATCHES (only) On EBAY (NOT for Inquiries)

I’ve always wanted a broad arrowhead dodecagonal pie pan Constellation 2852, though that’s out of my current price range. A Connie linen c case date (no day) is another one I’ve wanted for a while too, I feel like those are generally a fair bit cheaper. Might save up for one of those. If I see one of those models pop up on here for not too expensive I might pull the trigger. Or really anything else I like too I suppose! There’s not too many vintage Omegas I’ve seen that I don’t like, even the weird obscure references that aren’t to many people’s fancy. I’ll also definitely keep an eye out for multiple similar Geneves, hopefully they’ll be cheaper than $350

This is a really nice example of a coin edge white gold bezel C-Case Constellation in steel, tiny stain on the dial just above Swiss made but overall pretty excellent and I’d be having a go at getting that mark off dry if possible. Reference 168.029 Cal 751, excellent case and dial overall.

Another nice C-Case Constellation, very different from the one above but very nice condition also, 168.017 in steel with Cal 561, brick reference 1040 bracelet, smooth bezel and non luminous silver dial with dauphine hands. The edges and bevels on the case are quite sharp as is the bracelet, quite nice.

Yea the thing with that Connie is everyone wants that one as its the archetypal Constellation, and supplies aren’t great because they’re 1950s watches and the water resistance on a 2852 is honestly rather hopeless, leading to most of the dials being patinated or refinished. For that reason I’d seriously consider re-calibrating your desires a little more towards the 60s, with dogleg Connies, hidden-crown piepans and the like, because there are just so many more of them from that generation as the decade gave a quantum leap in case sealing.

This late 1950s Seamaster - my guess would be ref. 2846 - looks like it might be pretty nice. Gold-capped case that's definitely seen some life, has a couple nicks here and there but doesn't look too polished. Sharp, large hippocampus is a nice bonus and personally, I find those two-tone dials to be a stunning configuration. I'm guessing the little flaws wont really show on the wrist, while the nice dial will. Crown is an incorrect replacement, but not a bad one (and will certainly be more usable than those clover crowns, which, should you wish, can be found on eBay pretty easily).

No movement pictures, of course, so factor in a service, even though seller says it's running well. And be quick: It ends in 90 minutes.

I wonder is the seller’s zero feedback keeping some prospective buyers away?
