Omega Constellation ref. 168.029
Diameter: 35mm crown excluded
1967
Head only, lugsize is 19mm
Worldwide shipping through UPS and with Secursus insurance - the watch is in Belgium
Omega chronometer automatic cal. 751
Price: 595 euro net to me
Nice 168.029 project watch for sale in as found condition. I have no time/changed priorities but if the right buyer does not come along, I will have it serviced myself. The case has been polished/heavily used, but the facets are still visible. The linen dial is really striking - I can only spot a bit of dust particles and a small spot between the 10 and 11 markers - only visible in certain light. This near perfect dial is the real attraction point of this little project if you ask me. Good caseback. Gasket has melted. Original crown. Original crystal that could use a polishing session. It is in running condition but needs a good service. I noticed a stem issue that makes it hard to switch between time setting and crown disassemble mode. Should be easily fixed by a good watchmaker.
