The stainless-steel case and bracelet display visible surface scratches, scuffs and small marks consistent with use. Similar wear is present on the clasp and case back. The brown dial shows age-related patina and scattered marks, while retaining its distinctive appearance. The Omega Constellation medallion is missing from the centre of the case back, leaving the circular recess exposed. This detail is clearly visible in the photographs.

Contact with water should therefore be avoided unless the watch is professionally pressure-tested and resealed. Story & Heritage The Constellation name offers a compelling setting for this expressive Omega design. Here, the appeal lies in the relationship between the rectangular case, recessed dial and broad bracelet links, which together create a continuous sculptural silhouette. The brown dial brings warmth to the steel exterior. Its subtle chessboard character rewards closer inspection, while the restrained baton markers and two slender hands leave room for the surface to take centre stage. The flowing Constellation script adds a softer detail within the otherwise geometric composition. The original bracelet is an essential part of the watch’s visual identity. Its broad articulated links echo the case’s horizontal lines, giving the piece the appearance of a carefully coordinated steel accessory as well as a timekeeping instrument. Inside, the automatic Omega movement draws winding energy from the motion of its wearer. Combining that mechanical appeal with an unusual case shape and warm dial tones, this Constellation offers considerable character for collectors who appreciate the more adventurous side of vintage watch design.
