Hi All,

Looking for opinions on this constellation. Been looking for an arrow head marker in rose gold for some time now and just came across this one. My main concern is that I thought this dial style was for 2852s but this one is a 14381. Is that correct for this dial?

Appreciate any feedback you may have

 

They used those dials up until the c case, well I think maybe even in the c case..

 

It's incredibly gorgeous btw.. I bet that's gonna cost..

 

Thanks @Kja for that. I thought this dial could be correct, but I've been tricked before. Nice to get your opinion

 

I think it looks quite nice! Back seems to have had a good polish but the medallion is nice.

 

Yes it is correct. I have seen two 14381s like that in this forum.

 

Serial:17002610

 

Stunner, @pitpro! Yours is exceptional. The serial on this one is 17003680. 1070 off from yours so think it's safe to say this one checks out. Thanks for the feedback guys!

 

Not mine unfortunately.
I just keep a database on certain watches
Good Luck. It's a beauty!

 

If I'm not mistaken the 2852 would have the 'chronometre' spelling
So looks all good to me

 

I do have a 18k 14381(Railway) though

now on an NOS Omega alligator

 

While apparently the watch shown by the OP is for comparison purposes only, I would never pay serious money for an example showing such heavy-handed case-back polishing.

 

While I agree the caseback is over polished the rest of the watch looks quite attractive IMO so it wouldnt deter me from putting in an offer

 

Bezel is also not 100% crisp anymore, but still good enough. I reckon that the whole package is rather attractive.

Twist my arm hard enough and I might want to shout a "dibs please!".

 

Hard to tell with the gold reflection how much
this is polished, but the 14381 are not as sharp
as earlier Connies. Here's an example. This is about as good
as it gets.

 

That's my old one, sold in 2015.

For me personally the case back of @Dero13's example has seen too much of the polishing wheel. I would pass.

I also see some staining on the dial edge between 9 and 1 o clock.

 

@cristos71 I remember when you got it.
I wanted yours so bad when I saw it.
Then when I saw it was sold and I missed it I was very
depressed.

 

I don't have many regrets about sold watches as I normally hum and hah for months, sometimes years, before I sell anything. But this one.....

 

I missed the staining on the dial. That's why I run these by all of you. I'll pass on this one then

 

Yeah, running watches by @Peemacgee and others have saved me from buying flawed watches or driving half a day looking at them
