Omega

. . . a Connie? I've owned this '57 ref 2852 aka Black Connie for twelve years. If only it kept as good time as it looks . . . it's never run particularly well. My current watchmaker regulated it to ~ +15 sec/day, which was an improvement but still not sa...  

. . . identically specified - steel case, black engraved dial with rose gold hands and markers. Seen all sorts of combinations, but only two altogether like mine.

... if you rotate it often and do not wear this watch for more than one or two days I wouldn´t mind much about a 15 seconds a day difference. Yes, yes, I know... we wish a Connie working as a Connie should! Lol. I feel Constellations are among the most be...  

. . . my gosh, Abel, where have you been hiding this rare jewel!! All of yours are delectable, but the black dial . . . oh, my. Reference number? Not a 2943, as that should have 'Calendar' on the dial, as far as I know. Should be a later model with a cal ... 

I think I own a two more Connies which I need to find their pictures. I love the model and there are so many variants to hunt! Thank you again my dear friend! Abel

Also, this "person" loves Omegas and doesn't have a Constellation yet! ;-)

. . . before I was released in Los Angeles back in '57. We came into this world together, and that's how we're going out!

A wonderful and unique watch with same year birth!! That’s really something my friend! You found a Big Jewel!

. . . on TimeZone about fifteen years ago when it was owned by Phil Cooper [log-in: Hockey]. This is his photo snapped approximately 2005: I was immediately drawn to it. There's an ineffable quality to Black Connie that captured my heart. A few years late...  

So 1950s. I have a Venus from the same time period with similar indexes. Thanks for sharing. Hope you get it adjusted to your liking.

. . . my sense is that Omega does them better than any other manufacturer, bar none . . .

Have been wearing this at home on a strap just in the evenings for the last 10 days. Recently back from service, it's a special one for me. Clive ...  

. . . gotta love those angled lugs ;-) . . .

. . . would be anyone's pick, Edward. In Nico's parlance, "sublime". Yours in Connie-hood, Art

Hi All What a treat to se all your great Connies,- specially the textured, black dials. I'm nuts about Connies. The first vintage watch I bought som 20 years ago (second was a DateJust). For me the "dog legs" and piepan dials are THE special feature. Nobo...  

. . . in which you shared a close-up of your black '62. Not sure how many I've seen since, but it can't be more than the number of balls in play during a game of 3-ball. Thanks for sharing your Connie collection, Jacob. Warmest, Art ...  

I'll never be any good at photografing. Probably the most flattering photo I'll ever take; ...  

Hello All In addition to my esthetique pleasure regarding Connie's, I'm very happy with the cal. 56x, that ticks so steadily within my 4 samples Of my 30-odd rotation collection, they are by far the most precise and dependable movements. Way better then m...
