Hi All, I'd be interested to hear the experts view on this NOS Constellation 505 dial - is it NOS or a good copy? Cheers Andrew ...  

Hi Andrew It's a nice looking dial, but I would exspect more serif on the font. Can't hardly se any on "Constallation". Also several elements are ever so slightly out of allignment. Ex. the top arm of the star not being completely vertical. Nice dial thou... 

It is a difficult one and I'd like to think it was genuine but these days, fakes are getting so good Cheers Andrew

...that I would need to see it in person to make a determination. Everything seems to be in the right place, including the "Swiss Made" at the bottom, which is almost always done incorrectly on redials. The "missing" serifs might be more of an issue with ...

Great chance it is a redial. Study carefully the slashes on the minute track - a few touch the base (especially the 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th) while many others appear to be 'jumping' away from their base.

Well done my friend, I never would have spotted that. But it must be the best re-dial I've seen Cheers

which are also 29mm or so. That to me is the biggest problem since the original ones are 27mm in diameter (at least the ones for the most popular ref. 2852).

Please post pics of back of the dial.... Thanks Bill

The only photos were of the front. Anyway it is now sold - believe it or not for £276. Cheers Andrew

That's a cheap price.

I would probably have bought it. But alas............ Cheers Andrew

Surely you are not disappointed.
