Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1960s.
The watch is the Constellation automatic day date with calibre 751 chronometer grade movement, 24 jewels, adjusted to five positions and temperature - as you can see it is in fabulous condition.
Everything about this watch is original, the very rare pearlescent starburst dial with day and date is in perfect unblemished original condition it has not been restored or retouched in any way. It has rose gilt and black hands with a centre seconds hand and baton markers, even the glass is original as it still retains the rose gold inner bezel which has been obsolete for over 30 years. It has the Constellation observatory symbol embellished on the back of the case which is bright and crisp and also the Omega symbol on the crown.
The movement has just been serviced and comes with a 1 year warranty.
The case has been professionally polished so it is in superb condition.
As you would expect the watch is fully marked on the dial, movement and case.
It comes complete with a new premium quality black leather Hirsch strap .
The watch case is slightly oversize and measures 35mm in diameter not including the crown.
This is an extremely rare watch and would have been the most expensive watch in the Omega catalogue in 1969, it clearly has been seldom worn.
Overall this watch is in mint original condition and an absolute must for Omega collectors.
The watch has been fully serviced by and is guaranteed to be a genuine Omega in all respects. It has been professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.
It is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers parts. Each part is then thoroughly cleaned in a three stage ultrasonic cleaning process.
The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturers approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and sealed.
Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give you reliable and dependable service and will not require further service for many years.
