The wristwatch showcased in today's offering is a classic and exceedingly rare example of a later mechanical vintage Constellation.
While we are not suggesting it is one-of-a-kind, and we have confirmed its model number with Omega parts list to confirm that it is correct, our research could not turn up a single other example ever mentioned anywhere on the web.
It is very rare and cool...even among seasoned Omega collectors, you'll be the only person you know with one of these.
It has an unusual midsized oval case, wonderful gray dial whose tone changes from somewhat light to very dark depending on the angle the light hits it, and high-grade chronometer certified caliber 671 movement.
It has all of its original parts and presents in pleasing original condition.
Its case presents in excellent condition with only light wear. Its original dial has only fairly mild aging.
One of our Master Watchmakers has fully serviced it. It is running very accurately, keeping time on par with a new Omega in our testing recording position.
For the finishing touch it comes equipped with both the band that was on it when it was photographed, which shows some wear and tapers like a women's style band, and also a brand new Teju lizard mens black band. We have also meticulously detailed it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
An exceedingly rare four and half decade old Omega that presents distinctly on the wrist.
