Ronnie I believe this is a later box then the shallow casket shape of of the De Luxe gold Constellations (as illustrated here in another thread recently) or the smooth box similar one for the Centenary.


But beyond that I too wish I knew more. The sale of the one you have pictured is the first detailed image I have seen of this. Perhaps Hoi or George (Kringkily) has seen this before.

Here is a different Silver Constellation box from the one depicted in your sale, this may be the one in the Blue Ad.

 

No I believe this is a very different box. It may be De Luxe or Grand Luxe, but later, after the caskets as Omega calls them.

Lately a bewildering array of these Silver Omega Boxes have been showing up. I don't know if anyone has a complete handle on them, but we do seem to be learning a little more of late. One thing for sure, Omega made more variety of these than most people realized.

 

Assuming the box set for the second box <edit: that I posted images of >, are correct, the serial number would place that Silver Box at about 1960.

 

I was contacted by the winning bidder and I told him that this box was a mystery to me. I've never seen one quite like it, although it certainly looks authentic based on the printing inside and the type of insert.

My guess is that it is from the very early 1960's. It probably held an early 2nd generation model like Steve's, and is from a country where 0.950 is the standard for sterling silver. This would likely eliminate the US (0.900) and UK (0.925).

France or West Germany maybe?

Good hypothesis Gator. I have seen images of the box type with the hammered top like Ronnie's post before, but only poor ones showing part of the front so it is certainly not one off and likely genuine Omega as you state.

 

Original? No clue.

However, it will look stunning!

No clue there either, but I would not pay more than the going rate for the more conventional silver boxes.
