Here is a stunning, all original Omega Constellation Chronometer from 1966 in a very large size for the era. The silver sunburst dial is in excellent condition, with barely any marks. It has a golden Omega logo, emblem, and Constellation star and golden faceted hour markers with black onyx inlay, double marker at 12 o’clock. The golden dauphine hands with the original black contrast are in very fine condition. The window at 3 o’clock displays the date, which can be semi quick-set by first turning the hands through midnight so the date changes, then immediately turning the hands backwards to 21:00 and then forward through midnight again. Repeat as necessary.

 

The solid 14K gold bezel is in very fine condition with only light overall wear. The jumbo sized gold capped case with the original crown and lovely teardrop lugs is in very fine condition with light overall wear, most pronounced at the lugs. The stainless steel case back has a well preserved gold Geneva observatory medallion and is in fine condition with a few marks, mostly around the notches in the rim. The case does not appear to ever have been polished.

 

The watch comes on an after market leather strap and buckle of good quality.

 

Inside the watch, Omega’s high grade 561 movement beats strongly and accurately to within about +12 seconds per day. The watch was fully serviced in August 2024 and comes with a 12 month warranty on its proper mechanical functioning.

 

The fantastic dial and overall great condition combines with the large size to make this Connie look awesome on the wrist. This is a great gift for yourself or a loved one, and it will only increase in value over the next decades.

 

Our watches are delivered in a luxury wooden watch box, fully serviced with a 12 month warranty that covers the mechanical functioning of the watch under normal use. We offer 14 days full return rights and are very proud of our reputation for outstanding customer satisfaction.

 

NB! Note that we are based in Switzerland and that the buyer is responsible for any import fees their country may impose on a purchase from abroad. Ask us if you have any questions.
