Other owners probably, like me, busy chasing the earlier 1000 instead! Thanks for posting it again. I missed your first post because of, you know, busy chasing...馃槈

Absolutely, how great would it be to own 1 of those. Do you know the serial number run for the 1000? Happy hunting and keep me posted.

Well I guess this would have to be included too! I know it's certainly not one for the purists but I have five of these, three Marine Chronometers and they are all Connies

The watch in the article is mine, but was produced a couple of years before the Constellations.

Here is my brood:

1957 cal. 501 (redial - it was real cheap):

1969 cal. 564:

May sell it one day or you'll probably outlive me so I'm 100% sure it will go back to you. 馃榿

Hi Art,

Can you post a bigger picture of this one or is it the same one in the 3rd picture above? If it's the one then it's not exactly identical to Pahawi's watch as your watch's dial has a raised/stepped circle around the minute track, which is nicer and more uncommon than the other. Your dial is more similar to Cristos71's here: http://omegaforums.net/threads/vintage-constellations-show-and-tell.19186/#post-207561.

Some nice uncommon connies you have there!

Cheers,
Tony

Must.

Have.

More.

Constellations!

Don't fight nature - you can't make a constellation with only one star. 馃槣
