Sorry friends I added this to my previous post.
Luck doesnt seem to be on my side:banghead:
It seems Id missed out on the vintage omega 861 :thumbsdow
Omega 35th Anni. ed. white pearl dial,LNIB:thumbsdow
Now I have seen an vintage omega constellation, piepan, GOLD TOP,
dial silverish grey(repainted very good job),gold omega symbol, gold constellation star,gold omega crown original for constellation models, very clean movt, I think 561 movt. gold hr. markers, hands, dial has chrnonmetER (not chronometRE),
The case back has a crisp gold constellation dot.
The watch comes with a SS beads of rice bracelet not of this watch + an old pillow omega box.
The price USD 600.
Guidance please.:bye:

Hi, difficult to advise without photos..as standards of redials vary.. and what many people describe as a good redial is actually a shocking and very innacurate one to my eyes sometimes. Personally i would never buy a refinished dial and $600 for a refinished connie is a little steep. If you look at the connies on my website they are all original near mint pieces and i have paid between $550 -700 for them..
Obviously you need to kmae sure caseback is appropriate for this watch by cross referncing with omega database etc which i would be happy to do for you, and i would be happy to look over photos but i personally wouldnt go for this watch.
