About This Watch

Vintage. No box/papers. 

This 1972 Omega C shape Constellation chronometer day-date was the top-of-the-line model and one of the most expensive model in it's day. A full steel model is very desirable and this has been polished to factory specs so it presents almost new except for an old nick on the lug @ 1 that can be removed but we don't want to brush too deep and it's a vintage so old scars are perfectly alright. The back cover has WW initials engraved in cursive font presumably from one of the owner. Upon unlocking the back cover, there are no rust marks or corrosion evidences on the screw thread of the case which shows that it has had a good, dry life. The pink gold movement has an oxidised rotor but it is cosmetic and doesn't affect it's performance.

The movement has been serviced and watch is sold with our 6 months warranty but please do not expect chronometer timing by now as the watch is almost 50yrs old. This is a very clean and beautiful example with a thick case and sharp fluted bezel that's not over polished. The buckle on the bracelet is stamped 6 74 which is the manufacture year and coincides with the make of the movement so this watch was definitely sold in the earlier 1970s.

A rare piece to come by with the original bracelet and overall in excellent condition. This Constellation can still be a daily watch as long as you keep it away from moisture and she'll serve faithfully for decades to come. Most dealers are selling this model for over US$2K but we have priced it sensibly.
