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.

the catch here is to buy the watch at current market price most of the sellers are postings future price and also the hasty eBay buyers are inflating the prices.

That`s my Ref. 168.029, knurled bezel, gold top.

Hi Sumerian,
I have Connies in SS,gold top and solid gold. These watches are in nearly mint condition. If they are original all over (case, dial ,crown, movement) they are all worth collecting!

In the unlikely event the value does not go north (to enthusiasts, this is secondary), owning, wearing or even just looking at those highly desirable watches in mint condition with factory-original specs is just pleasure and happiness, beyond description.

Thank-you.

I agree with respectable member seamonster. If your situation is not win-win, then it is at least lose-win or tie-win. There is always an element of win when you purchase such magnificent pieces.
