i used to own a black dial connie years ago but no pics. i have a pic of a previously owned Ranchero, but i know your after connies and seamasters from the 50's. i dont expect there will be many pics coming forward due to their uncommonness. Graham

Then I saw the restriction - no black guilloche dials! Well, I only look for original black guilloche dials so I refrained from putting up pictures!

Hi MSN. Because the black guilloche dials were made from different materials and they last much longer than the normal ones. It's unfair to bring them here to compete. Btw, I've seen your guilloche dials in the other post. They are very, very nice. Look l...

Hi Erich. The Seamasters with date at 6 are always my favourite. I have one with cracked crystal and a tattered look (trying to keep it that way). Sometimes I wear it with the feeling of a teenager in his old blue jean. We should start another thread abou...
