  1. Good morning everyone, I am trying to sell this Omega watch I acquired and I'm trying not to get ripped off. Any chance someone might know exactly what I have and maybe a round about price range. Any feed back will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
  2. Hi All, Just got this Omega Constellation which is also known as a 'pie-pan' due to the dished dial. This is the larger cased version which is not as common as the normal sized Constellations and apparently produced for Japan, Singapore,Indonesia and Thailand markets (no mention of Malaysia , where I'm at!). It also has a hidden crown, not so common among Omegas of the period. It dosn't have a gold constellation on the back tho'. Now the interesting bit....Prior to this I have read about the 'landmarks' in Omega where they had produced consecutive batches of watches which passed the COSC test..historical because all the movements were consecutive. The three landmarks were a run of 1,000 (in 1949), 20,000 (in 1959-60) and 100,000 (1964-66). When I got the watch the first thing I checked was if I had gotten lucky and 'scored' one of the watches from the batch of 100,000...Well the batch of 100,000 comprised of movement serial numbers from 24,410,000 to 24,509,999...as it turned out I got lucky! My watch has the serial number of 24,422,084 which is the 12,084th of the batch of 100,000. Movement runs well but I think it could do with a clean..the plates look a bit tarnished, hopefully a cleanup will improve it. Also the rotor has been changed as the colour doesn't match. No real issue as this was probably done back in the day when function overuled cosmetic appearances, I'm just happy that it was swapped out before the worn pivots marked the main-plate/bridges. I do have some other 5xx movement so I may swap a more appropriate one here. The balance bridge is also the same hue of the rotor but I don't think I'll mess with it for now. cheers! Anil
