Omega

Thanks Hoi.

I've only seen two Seamaster pie pans - one mint Grand Luxe Seamaster with the step sided dial as shown in the Omega book for sale about 4 or 5 years ago (sold for $10,800 back then!!!), one full rotor 50x just recently that was beat up a bit (sold for just under $3000 I think). The date at 6 is what did it for me. I've said this on other forums: never thought I'd see one in person let alone own an example.

Yes, the hands are probably long and should be the same length as the Constellation De Luxe shown above I think. I have a query into Omega about that and have those length hands already to go if necessary.

Connies.

After so many messages about your meeting in Las Vegas, what most struck me was your love for Connies. I'm trying to buy an Omega Constellation All Steel (now I can not afford a solid gold Pie Pan). I do not know yet exactly which model. Meanwhile, a phot...

Well, you can happily wait for YOUR Connie with such a lovely Carrera.

A very nice specimen you have, here. Art's Connie just killed me. This Black dial, and warm indexes is very attractive, indeed, and if you add the fact that it is a timeless beauty, n wonder why so many people love this watch. Good luck in your hunt. Best...

There's something special about Connies, no doubt! There are . . .

. . . two in my collection currently, and another in my sights. They are, for lack of a better word, "pure" designs . . . just the right size, elegantly styled without being overtly stylish, and fitted with excellent movements. And there are so many varia...

Thank you.

Thank you very much for your answers. I'll upload photos of my Connie as soon as I receive it.

Have you purchases one already?

If so, pictures! If not, and you want a bargain, check out the 168.015 dome dial and 168.025 pie pan. They came in stainless and had the 564 inside - great watches for relatively cheap prices compared to other Constellations from the 60's. Here's my '68 0...

Go for the best.

Hi Dennis. IMHO, I would save the money to go for the best, don't settle for less. The one on the right is in a unishell, that I don't like. On top of the hour markers, are they painted black or with onyx inserts? May I ask..

Hi Hoi!

By: ulackfocus : June 27th, 2011-10:15

I think they're both paint, but I'll take a look under magnification to be sure. I prefer my 168.005 over the unishell front loading versions too, but both house the 564 so I don't make too much of a differentiation in quality. Now, if we're talking the b...

2799 &2699.

Hi Dennis. Talking about the bumper movements, I prefer the 2699 over the 2799 just because the 2699 is the first model with Pie pan dials which openned a golden era of the legendary Pie pan dials. Here is my 2699, in pristine condition with De Luxe dial....
