    Yes, I still own that 168.009 with the brick 368.08 bracelet. Mine is the original version with the caliber 561 that was only made in 1966, not the later knurled bezel caliber 751.

    BTW, $9900 is insane for that watch in the eBay listing. It's been relisted time and again for a year that I know of.

    except if she is also into watches, it does significantly increase the total price tag!

    Not being married does make spending your whole income on watches easier. Trust me on that.

    Ash, you have to read carefully. He wants to make it more difficult for him to buy watches.::screwloose::

    Your taste for the very desirable and uncommon vintage Omega Constellation vintage examples, will not make you a bankrupt.

    The market for those you have picked up is growing, from day to day. As long as they are as close as possible to factory-originality, you cannot go wrong. Always avoid a refinished or reconditioned dial and an over-polished case. Excellent examples are becoming more difficult to source. Ardent vintage-watch collectors have no respect for market-price. Usually, they have deep pockets.

    Thank-you.

    You don't want that one. That one will end up an ex-wife. Of course, an ex-wife would also solve your problem of too much expendable income. ;)
