Just got this one off ebay. It is very dirty, but it should clean up nicely and be a good honest wearer:

GC Constellation and Seamaster Cal 321. Both very lightly polished, if any... 13748a57a53ebf1941d0cdedd947dd3e.jpg

GREAT THREAD!!!! What a gallery collection! We should charge admission!
Here's the last one I owned.

Dates to 1956 and I love the original dial with the big arrowhead markers. I sold it a few months ago.

Great watches!
I ran across this one the other day. they guy is asking $550, although I may be able to talk him down some. What do you think? What could have caused the spotting on the dial? Should this be a 562cal?
Thanks!
Matt

562 isn't a chronometer movement
Spotting is 'bubbling' in the lacquer on the dial
Lugs look a little odd but could just be polished
Hope that helps
Ps this is a show and tell thread
Suggest you post separately for queries

I'd pass on this, if it has a cal, 562 it's a franken...much better ones out there!
