Thanks, but you're number 4 in line, so......

 

I finally get to post in this thread. Over the years I've been ensnared with silver pie pan Constellations but never bought one due to all the obvious pitfalls as a novice. I've learned a lot from the forum and of course all the online resources from member @mondodec .

But thanks to @JohnSteed I actually have my very own silver pie pan!

Ref 168.005 Cal 564
It was born in 1966, same as me.

I hope you enjoy some photos.
I'm loving the watch!

Pulled this one out to look at today, it hardly sees the light of day. I think a new pair of shoes may cause me to wear it more. Black Gator maybe....

Edit: since this is a reference thread 14900-62 Cal 551 Serial # 19mil

 

So glad I bumped this thread.

 

yeah, it's worth it

Thanks to your help with this thread and the private sales area I dodged that bullet and I couldn't be happier!

 

Every who posted can take a bow

Can Close ... LoL

 

I think there are many more wonderful curtain calls to take yet
Encore!

 

I dunno, we might need an even more explicit "How to avoid the noob tax" sticky or something. Lord knows I wish I'd seen it in 2011.
