Omega's flagship line for decades, the Constellation represents style, luxury, attention to detail, robust function, and most all, superior precision. Elegant and classic, it is suitable for both casual and professional dress.
Today's offering showcases this retro classically styled Constellation chronometer. It traditional round case has been transformed into a retro style that is embraced by a retro styled integrated bracelet.
The centerpiece of the watch is its beautiful royal blue vignette dial - royal blue that fades to black around the periphery.
It measures 34.5mm without the crown - in between the sizes of a Rolex Date and Datejust.
Powering the watch is Omega's officially certified chronometer caliber 712 movement, the thinnest automatic movement ever made by the company.
It has all of its original parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents in gorgeous condition. With the exception of only slight stretch in the bracelet, the rest of the watch presents as a 9.7 out of 10.
The classic retro case presents as just short of perfect mint with slight wear to on the underside where the case is pried open for servicing. The original Omega dial has been meticulously custom refinished - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.
As part of the restoration, the movement has been freshly fully serviced by a Master Watchmaker. It is running very strongly and very accurately keeping time.
For the finishing touch, we have meticulously detailed it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
