We love a Constellation here at Watts On Watches, alongside the Speedmaster these a true reflection of the high craftsmanship Omega can offer. This is a wonderful Omega Constellation with a silver sunburst dial with gold applied markers, hands and Omega logo dating from 1966. This was considered the peak of craftsmanship from Omega in the 60's and this watch features many details we've come to love about vintage Constellations from the collection name on the dial with an applied star logo at 6, to the iconic Geneva Observatory caseback medallion. The eight gold stars on the gold medallion represent the intrinsically difficult eight observatory chronometer competitions Omega won in the 20th century. This Constellation was a chronometer-rated watch and it says so right on the dial. The case on this example is as sharp as we have seen with strong dog-legged chamfers and strong caseback medallion. The watch also sports the original Constellation crown and engraved Omega crystal. The watch runs and automatic caliber 551 adjusted to 5 positions. One of the sharpest case and clean dials we have had.
