Over the moon !
Dear Sirs
Got this Cosmic, OJ2473 yesterday at an auktion in Copenhagen. Fair price and a huge "check" on the old to-get list.
Also it's my first moonphase, so I'm intangled in sideral moons, 29,53 days and what not. Hope there is a clear sky tonight
All though I'm very happy with the dial, I would, as always, appreciate you comments regarding it's originality.
By the way,- I posted a similar request about a black dialed Constallation some time ago.
An extract from Omega archives show it was delivered to "US Marine" in 1963. (Hence the black dial
)
Kind of cool to have a gold-caped military Constellation. Guess I'll need a extra natostrap
Yours
Jacob

the dial being a well done repaint. The font of "omega" is too thick, the minute hash marks are a bit too far from the five minute markers and the subdial markings are bit off. Would want to see a face on high resolution picture to consider it a bit more....

These are really beautiful watches! Especially the referenced watch in the second photo. The thin blue seconds hand and seconds markers really contrast nicely. And I'm always a sucker for those larger more robust looking lugs.
