·This 2887 is a seldom seen reference being the only screwback case ref for the cal 501 and 505 1950´s
Constellations, the rest being snap back cases. By some estimations only 1% of the 501/505 Constellations came in this case type.
The pie pan dial has a very unique and distinctive burnt patina which some will love and some will possibly hate! I personally love it 😀
The 16 mil. cal. 505 movement is from about 1958, running well although I have no service history for it.
The crown is not correct for this reference and there is a scratch around 11´0´clock on the crystal ( pic.2 )
Euro 1100 No trades.

Any questions don´t hesitate to ask. 😉
