    This thread is seriously superlative. Every once in a while, I would see a constellation that looks decent on ebay. But once I compare those to the ones here, the ebay ones immediately look horrendous.

    A recently acquired second '57 vintage Constellation.

    Photo pulled from auction

    Feels all better now. Looks better than my photographic capabilities illustrate.

    My original ol' ratty Constellation with it's bad re-dial in a photo taken years ago. I've worn it more than any other single watch I've ever had. It's been a great-running watch and I'd like to do something with it. Am debating re-doing the re-do.

    Even though I've posted about getting it only recently -it's only right that I add my Constellation to the pot.
    probably 65/67/67 (won't know until I get home and get the back off)
    cal 564
    dome dial

    -Sitting in DXB waiting for a 2am flight to Blighty and course what better to do than to go to OF.

    The Connie is in my pocket (bracelet too big to wear -and the Omega boutique in Dubai Mall said they would have to send it to Switzerland to remove a couple of links.....).
    Whilst home I'll decide where to send it off to for some TLC.

    So hopefully in a couple of months it might look somewhere as near as good as the previous posts.

    Amazing individual watches guys -but to see the collections of constellations is just too much........gobsmacked!

    Just have to be patient, and keep looking. I got my first on eBay (I was a noob and got lucky), and then from a trusted, veteran OmegaForums member in 'Private Sales':

    '54 ref. 2782, cal 354 Photo Nov 04, 5 48 22 PM.jpg Photo Nov 04, 5 49 08 PM.jpg '58 ref. 2887, cal 505 c31ee680d84e26cfb6adfa07e2ce0ee5.jpg

    ... and I've been here for only 6 months!

    Beautiful pictures of Connies and their variations. My two favorites - black dial with rose gold and hidden crown, and white dial with yellow gold.
