Another Connie for the bank....

Hi everyone...

I was not expecting to find a watch but this came across a table the other day. As soon as I had it in my hand i knew I was going to buy it or trade for it or something...

I have a thing for mono tone dials ... It powered by a 505 chronometre grade movement. I love the white gold "thin" arrow head markers on the pie pan dial.

. . . at your service ;-) . . .

Everytime I see one beautiful Connie I feel a deep regret by not having a single one. Many offerings but no one on the amazing conditions as yours. I keep my hunting going. Someday... Who knows. Finally, is a very wise action to keep watches on a bank vau...

Looking great, Bill! [nt]

Very nice Bill - it looks quite unmolested. Cheers Andrew

That is what caught my eye!

Hi Andrew I got this watch quite by accident. I good friend and watchmaker just showed it to be before posting it for sale. My eyes went wide , I am very partial to monotone.... Did did not want $ but trade! So I had to trade. Bill

Lovely..

Nice Grab Bill

By: hockey : September 7th, 2013-10:00

Hey Bill, good to see you grabbed another nice connie. These are quite scarce with the narrow white gold arrowhead markers. I can see why you would want it. I just don't see these come up for sale anymore, I don't think very many were made with this dial ...
