I don’t think this connie has sold. I was following it since the beginning and the seller seems shady.
It ended at 2200 bucks but it now displays 1yen. This usually entails the seller has cancelled the sale.

True. I watched the auction end, but apparently he canceled it retroactively. Well, he can hold onto it for a while and maybe the market will rise. 🙄
Reviving the thread sooner that I anticipated:

The only 3 pics from the ad:
This one’s just finished at >3500$. 2887 probably, so yes, uncommon reference and the lume plots on the arrowhead indices are special order. Still. I wonder if we’ll see it around soon. The final price doesn’t make sense to me.
The price don't make sense to me either but I also have never looked at the 2887s, but the rarity probably justifies the premium.
Was also watching that one and could not figure out the exact reference, was first thinking a 2652 since the screwed caseback but the piepan dial did not make sense to that reference so I suspected the more uncommon 2887 reference.

Auction results from the past seem to confirm this, I’ve never seen one go for that amount anyway.
Can you post previous auction results for these lumed arrowhead pie pans? Would be good to have some figures for the record.
I was referring to 2887s, not 2887s with lumed arrowhead pie pans. It’s a double limitation that’s quite significant. Also, admittedly, I haven’t followed any Constellations with this particularly odd lume configuration as I find it rather hard to look at. 😁
A 14381 wouldn’t have ‘Constellation’ printed on the case back.
So most likely a 2887 as noted above.
Maybe. However, that was not the case (pun not intended) for @TexOmega in the linked thread above. I encourage you to click on it and give it a read as it’s the most similar example to the watch on eBay.
Let’s compare casebacks from the eBay watch (pic 1) to @TexOmega ’s 14381 (pic 2) to a 2887 (pic 3):
