Description from the seller

Omega Constellation Automatic Chronometer – Cal. 1011 – Ref. 168.059 – Vintage TV Case

The Omega Constellation Automatic Chronometer Ref. 168.059 is a distinctive example of Omega’s prestigious chronometer collection from the 1970s. Since its introduction in 1952, the Constellation has represented Omega’s commitment to precision, technical excellence, and sophisticated Swiss watchmaking. Powered by the Omega Calibre 1011, a 23-jewel high-frequency automatic movement, this model combines chronometer-certified performance with the bold styling of its era.

This particular example features an elegant silver sunburst dial with applied silver-tone baton indexes and contrasting black inserts. Its distinctive TV-shaped stainless-steel case, broad brushed surfaces, and matching integrated-style bracelet create an unmistakable 1970s appearance. The framed date window, Constellation signature, and “Chronometer Officially Certified” inscription complete this refined vintage Omega.

Important Photo & Color Note: High-resolution images may exaggerate minor imperfections not visible to the naked eye. Photographs were taken using professional camera equipment and controlled lighting; therefore, the dial, case, and bracelet may appear slightly darker, brighter, or different in tone depending on ambient lighting, direct sunlight, viewing angle, and screen settings.
