Picked this one up from ebay.. early 1960's 561 connie.. for £200. Dial is aged, but case is in excellent condition. Not bad for a swiss chronometer graded movement in one of omegas flagship models.

Very nice pity about the spotting on dial,seem like most vintage Consteilations have the same problem.

thanks, you are right of course, that it is difficult to find a connie with a pristine dial, they do tend to damage easily..which is a pity as the pie pan connie is my favourite vintage omega.
