Rare Original and Untouched Omega Constellation Jumbo Chronometer 1966

1940 - 1960
Description

This is the rare Omega Constellation model reference 168.001 Incredible untouched condition, professionally serviced with 12 month warranty.

The diameter is 37mm excluding the crown which makes this a jumbo and the largest vintage Omega Constellation and one of the rarest, this model was only ever sold in Japan and Singapore it is rarely seen outside of the Far East.

The movement is the calibre 561 Chronometer grade fully automatic with 24 jewels, Omegas highest grade movement.

This is an amazing unrestored example of this iconic Omega. All of the edges are clean and sharp, it has never been polished or restored.

The original untouched starburst dial is near perfect with just a very fine even patination to the surface, the only work we have done to this watch is to service the movement and give the case a thorough ultrasonic clean.

The gold Observatory Medallion to the case back is detailed and crisp, all of the eight stars are sharp and clear indicating that its had a very pampered life.

As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case.

Overall this watch is in superb original condition It has clearly been seldom worn and an absolute must for Omega collectors.

It will come with both brown and black premium straps and a spring bar tool to swap them as you wish.

It is very rare to find this watch in such amazing original condition due to the high humidity in the far east and original dials are very rare.

The movement has just been fully serviced and is guaranteed to be a genuine Omega in all respects, it comes with a 12 month warranty.

Declaration

Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1960s.
