From The Curator
Introduced in 1952, the Constellation collection marks the start of Omega’s relentless quest for accuracy. And all of these years later, that quest lives on. But looking back into history is how we find the best, most original, most detailed examples.
Dialing in, this solid gold model is a dream. Frankly, the linen dials that were manufactured by Rolex and Omega in the 20th Century remain some of the most sought after dials in the watch world. The level of detail in each ridge is remarkable, it’s the sort of detail you never tire of. This Constellation is a perfect example of their famous allure. Complete with an 14k yellow gold case, not to mention an immaculate linen dial, it’s just exemplary.
And of course, it comes complete with a certificate of authenticity and appraisal and is shipped carefully and fully insured.
