Omega crystal PX5140 (that is the part number for the crystal with a yellow ring which would be correct for your watch).

Ack....now the crystal isn't original. Maybe he broke it while trying to source some photos of the watch.

X350 XJR,

I'm looking at the same watch/dial with a 5 row BOR bracelet, powered by a 551. The dial is original, but has some small, even spotting, still about 80-85%. The gold medallion is about 85%. Don't know if I can post picture...it's at a show that ends today. Could you give me an idea of value based on my description?

Regards,

Here's mine, CK14381, 17015208.

One cool thing about this one is that I have the original box, chronometer certificate, hang tags and sales receipt, for get this $64.50!

Another interesting thing is the bracelet, a flat link with the expandable ends, identical to the 1039 and 7912 found on the same vintage Speedmasters and SM 300s, with no reference number, just a date code of 2/61, jiving closely with the purchase date of 9/60. Not something commonly seen on a Constellation. Since the bracelet is not noted on the receipt I assume it was added shortly after purchase. It's always been my understanding that these were supplied on straps and that bracelets were sold as accessories be the dealer.
