    Here's my wish list: I have no preference of Gold Cap or S/S. I prefer clean medallion case back, clean dial with patina ok, running, cross hair, texture dial or both. Price range around $1K.

    Just a quick update. I'm currently watching a couple Connies on Ebay, by recommendations of this forum's knowledgeable ones. You know who you are. I'll update this forum results of my attempt to snag one. Stay tuned my friends...:)

    You are aware that the dial has been refinished, correct? 40% of the value of a pie pan is in it having an original dial.

    While your watch is an attractive model and not without charm, you got a good price on it because it is a redial and the cross-hairs are incorrectly done. Of course I think you did better then ULFs first Constellation purchase :D

    Yep, I can see the incorrectness of the cross hair, since it's been pointed out.

    I didn't know the percentage, just know original is better for value & collectibility.

    BTW, this ROL59's watch, not mine.

    I believe this has the correct cross hair, does it not?
