    Hi,
    just got this Connstellation and i´d like to know how it looks to you.
    Wrong bracelet, i know.
    Any comments on the rest?
    Dial looks better in real then in the pic. The glas unsharpens the print on the dial. The a in Constellation is completly printed in real.
    564 movement with serial 30mil.
    Glas is broken in the middel.
    I think a nice watch on a new leather strap for all day use after changing glas and servicing the movement.

    What I think of it is immaterial. What do you think of it? A lot of sins are forgiven if you got it cheap.

    I think with a little TLC you'll have a great watch.

    Appears to be in pretty decent overall condition, with original unpolished case.

    A service and nice leather strap and you'll be all set.

    Tender Loving Care.

    Take it to a good watchmaker for a service and new crystal. Get a nice leather strap.

    That strap looks like something for a Speedmaster or a Seamaster. It might look great on your next Omega...


    Oh, and ask the watchmaker to refrain from polishing the case. Some of them think they're doing you a favor taking the edges off.

    Nice case. As said, full movement service, new crystal and band, and you're good to go. This is what a C-case should look like when you start to revive it.
