Omega - Constellation - 166.0220 - Men - 1974

New Old Stock – Unpolished – Original Box An incredibly rare highly preserved unworn Omega Constellation from 1974, reference 166.0220, kept in dry, stable storage for 52 years. Quite possibly the last one in existence. This example remains in completely original, unworn New Old Stock condition. All factory stickers remain intact. Accompanied by its original Omega presentation box. Specifications Stainless steel case Diameter: 39 mm (diagonally) Lug to lug: 42 mm Thickness: 9 mm Automatic movement – Omega calibre 1012 Quickset date function (fully operational) Condition Original untouched dial No spotting, discoloration, or patina Original hands and lume in excellent condition Case sharp with defined edges Movement running well Quickset date functioning correctly As the watch has never been serviced due to its preserved state, exact timekeeping accuracy (seconds per day) has not been formally tested. If the buyer intends to wear the watch regularly and remove the original seals, a simple service (cleaning/oiling of the movement and replacement of the gasket) is recommended. This advice was provided by an Omega-certified watchmaker in the Netherlands. Alternatively, it may be preserved in its current untouched state as a rare 1970s New Old Stock Constellation. Examples in this level of preservation are very rarely found.
