Let me know exactly what you need. I might have one in my crown stash. I will need dimensions and ideally a photo too

This seems to be the modern equivalent of 4201

Only in steel, but the measurements are the same. I wonder if it would be worth trying to get hold of one and seeing if it fitted, and then getting it plated if so.

Would be keen to hear if anyone else has tried this crown? Or indeed if you or anyone else has any thoughts on this approach @Peemacgee?

The measurements I gave were only approximate and I’m pretty sure that there is no modern version of the ‘hidden’ crown being produced today.

The only way of finding a replacement original style crown is from someone who knows what they have.

knowing what the approximate measurements are might get you close but it also might not.

Black or white dial - which team are you on?

Both come with a waffle dial and arrowhead markers. 😀

Both are beautiful - Why choose, Teerapat?

I was just asking out of curiosity, @Peemacgee - I actually keep both anyway. 😉

I should have added - my 'team' (football) play in black and white anyway - so I'm already covered. 😁

A quick few shots of the collection. Missing a couple of 168.005’s (one double signed turler and one standard) as they’re being serviced by my watchmaker currently.

Very grateful to have been able to pursue this hobby. Think I’m calling it a day for the time being as very lucky to have picked up what I have!

Just wanted to share as been very much admiring many of the Connie’s in this thread!

Here’s my Constellation Calendar with the added “TURLER” signature.

This might be one of the Constellation models that carries the most lines of text on its dial.
