Decagon steel crown too - will it fit the 60's Constellations?:


It will fit but a bit thick . The thin one with thin logo is preferred.

Not much time left, but check THIS out:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-Omega-...90857890627?pt=AU_Watches&hash=item2c70044b43

Almost makes me want to take bets on how much it'll end at.

Another one, a little scratch or two:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Omega-1950s...50819327322?pt=AU_Watches&hash=item51ae761d5a

The price of that first dial took my breath away especially considering it wasn't perfect (had a small scratch and bleed over of the printing of the numbers into the subdial).

If I knew Dynamics had this dial option available, I might have bought one!:

The limited edition "Targa Florio" Dynamic Chronograph was launched in 1999.

The watch was named after Targa Florio, the legendary oldtimer race held on Sicily. The first race was in 1906, the last race was in 1973. (Therefore this limited edition is one of 1973 pieces.)

Very cool, Fangio would have liked this 馃憤

The old films of this race and the Mile Miglia are amazing! The Italian public would be standing on the road trying to get as close as possible to the race cars. I saw a film of Sir Stirling Moss driving his Mercedes at full speed into a crowd of people standing on the track who where would trying to get off the track at the very last moment to let him through. 馃槻 Those were the days before having to wear a crash helmet while riding a push bike 馃檮

Saw him back in 1991 doing exhibition laps in a Alfa Tipo 159 at Laguna Seca.

Stirling acknowledged Fangio as the master of his era. I saw an article in a local magazine of one of his Alfa racers. I think the clutch pedal or the brake pedal was on the other side of the trans tunnel. It must have been an act to manage on a tight circuit.

If you're talking about Seamaster DeVille above, the crystal and bezel come off, the crown stem is split, then the dial/movement comes out the front.

If you haven't done this previously I recommend having someone with experience do it for you.
