Named after the eight stars emblazoned on its crest, the Constellation was launched by OMEGA in 1952. Because of its high-quality construction and unfaltering precision, the Constellation quickly became known as “the Swiss watch”. The Omega Constellation is a historic model that is celebrated by countless collectors around the globe. 

What’s On Offer 

A superb example of a vintage Omega Constellation, this particular watch hales from the 1960s and is paired with its original 'beads of rice' bracelet. The ivory dial has taken on some rather pleasing patina which adds a beautiful warmth to the dial. Faceted applied batons mark the hours and elegant Dauphine hands sweep around the dial past the subtle date aperture at 3 o'clock and over the Constellation signature with its synonymous applied star. This corresponds with the observatory engraving on the caseback which is also synonymous with the Constellation range and features eight stars. The watch is in superb preowned shape with minimal signs of wear and looks great on the wrist. A vintage Omega simply never goes out of style, you won't go far wrong with this!
