A black hobnail dialed Constellation 2652. To my knowledge, there are only three known examples. The other two are also owned by OF members.

Dial is not right., Omega not right , automatic not right. …. I would not buy this watch.

Good hunting

Lots of fake parts on that watch.

"Rare" as in you don't see these that often:

And "rare" as in you don't ever find these in this condition:

Love the texture and esthetics. Great proportions and color. Thank you for sharing!

hi

I just dislike the term " RARE" in talking watches.... It a term i use to order a steak at Peter Luger's Steakhouse.

These are uncommon at best .... made on an assembly line.....

I will go with an uncommon watch .... not my most uncommon but its a start ...

how are about a S.58 Zenith with a bumper 133.8 movement... and a uncommon stretch Zenith bracelet but someone filed down the end pieces ( working to find another set. ) but it works over all ….

Good hunting
