WATCH POP

I must say that I prefer the look of the classic Constellation to the double eagle, especially the steel model. When the double eagle was first launched I thought it was hideous. It is starting to grow on me especially the Chronograph or the Co-axial in pink gold. Maybe I'm just old fashioned but there is somethng about the simplicity of the old style Constellation in steel with a grey dial that catches my eye. Current Collection: Some Rolex's, Two Omega's and one vintage Hamilton I think the only nice connies are the old pie pan of the 60s. I don't think much of the new connies especially with the integrated bracelets. Can't wait til they bring back the classic style. I'd love to have one of those myself!! Especially in steel or yellow gold with a black dial and leather band! What a classic. Current Collection: Some Rolex's, Two Omega's and one vintage Hamilton The Double Eagle doesn't have the classy look that the older style has, plus, it's too large for my wrist for me to consider it a dress watch.

Damon When your watch gets out of order you have a choice of two things to do: throw it in the fire or take it to the watch-tinker. The former is the quickest. -MT The Double Eagle doesn't do anything for me- and from the lack them being shown off here, or showing up for sale in the SC, they would seem to less popular.

Quote DB I agree and recently got my hands on this 1967 Constellation. (I will post some better pictures when I get it back from service) Pie-Pan Connies for me. I have two and IMHO there is no conmparison. If Omega was smart they would come out with a new limited edition pie-pan Connie-They would fly off the shelves. I love the old pie-pan design. Have you checked out the new DeVille small seconds? It's close. Hal
