Pretty Cool Find ~ Pie Pan Constellation

Found this on Craigslist last night, picked it up this morning. Can't wait to see how she turns out.

Love mine! Looks like yours just needs a little TLC--the dial looks great! Hard to tell from the pics--is it the 14k version or the SS and gold?

Got a feeling I'm about 5-10 years too old for this one but I'll know more after I drop it off this weekend to have it looked at/serviced.

I love the old designs and PP dials are always so cool.

Congrats on your find!

After a bit of a wait, the Pie Pan has returned. Looking pretty good for a 47 year old that was living on the streets just a few months ago.

Get a nice strap and a nice omega buckle and you're good to go

Very nice. Dial looks original and in great patina and the case looks in good shape too. Love vintage Omega especially the pp.

To a local, independent shop here in Tucson called 'A-1 Watch Company'. Very nice people, though to be honest, with all the walk-in traffic I've seen every time I've been in, it's a wonder they have time to sit down and get anything done at all.

Your very right about that.The vintage Omegas just have a certian charm about them. I just recently aquired a 1960 cal 600 dress Omega is stainless steel that ive completly fallen in love with. Im dreading sending her for a service soon since ill be without her for some time, however it will be very rewarding to have her back and in tip top mechanical shape.
