What are your thoughts on this watch? If you have sasquatch wrists like me but yearn for a sleek vintage look, it's superb! Built like a tank, super retro cool & thin, 42mm, can't say enough. I'll never sell it 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is kind of what I'm looking for in a vintage Constellation. Ideally, I'm looking for this layout with a pie-pan dial. Have been on the lookout a while now as most of what I've seen, appear to be priced out of my budgeted range. Thanks for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A pain without quickset if it’s only worn occasionally. Arrow markers are sought after and getting expensive, but compared to say a DJ or Precision of the same vintage they are good value IMO This one is 14k which wears harder - the stars on the back should be clearly visible on good examples 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been looking at a pie pan for a bit. I never considered the lack of quick set on the date. It will be a huge pain. What do you think of the chronostop?
