Both of my kids have claimed them. Son (16) is wearing his now and daughter will do so on special occasions and as she is only 9.

·Hello all,
I got a new 168.017 Linen dial from 66 last saturday, I will share some photos soon.
After a full day yesterday and this morning, I could not find an answer, what was the design of the buckle used on the 168.017 ?
Because it's a brand new buckle and I would like to put a vintage one on it.
I rode the thread about the buckle, looked the old advertising poster and image of 168.017 Constellation.. But never find a proper answer, is somebody know it would be super helpful !
Thank you

·Here are both together 😀
Champagne is from 69 and Linen 66.
Some stuff are funny comparing them :
Size and placement of the star are different. Bigger and more up for the Linen.
The width of the chamfer on the side of the case are wider on the Linen also.
Even on the movement, some details are different on the Linen (refinement), while the movement of the champagne dial is a bit more gold color looking.
