c. 1971 Omega Constellation Mens Automatic Chronometer Watch with Tiffany Blue Dial - Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 8485

Omega's flagship line for decades, the Constellation represents style, luxury, attention to detail, robust function, and most of all, superior precision. Elegant and stately, it is suitable for both casual and professional dress.

Today's offering showcases this retro styled classic Constellation chronometer with beautiful Tiffany blue dial. It's a prime example of a later vintage Constellation, Omega's flagship watch, before the quartz revolution took hold.

Featuring an officially certified automatic chronometer movement with quick-set date and a robust stainless steel case and bracelet, this late 60's - early 70's era Omega demonstrates why the Constellation was the company's flagship line.

Here are some of its features:

  • Officially certified as a chronometer by the C.O.S.C.
  • Ultra-thin design automatic movement measuring only 4.25mm thick
  • Thinner rotor to reduce stress on key winding parts
  • Hacking feature for accurate time-setting
  • Tiffany "robin's egg blue" dial with wide steel markers topped with white for easy reading
  • Distinctive chunky retro styled case

It is fully Omega down to the hands, crown, and even original crystal! It has just finished a true expertly done restoration - it presents in gorgeous condition. Our photos couldn't do it justice!

The case presents as beautiful mint with crisp facets on the bezel. The Tiffany & Co. color robin's egg blue dial has had a true expertly done custom refinishing - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration a Master Watchmaker has freshly overhauled it and it is keeping generally accurate time in all positions.

For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.

A five decade old Omega that looks like new on the wrist!
