That is a seriously cool box!

 

Yeah I'd seen pictures before but it's still a fascinating box! Wonder what could have happened to the dial when the watch looks basically unworn? With its damaged dial and non working movement (potentially a £1000 fix) I'm surprised some idiot hasn't melted it...possibly because it comes with its box?

 

Yeah I got a couple of those ;-) I'd really love to own a full 18k 1300...or 1510...or OMC like this one :

 

Ah, no, unfortunately, I didn't realize you were referring to the full 18k 2.4Mhz stardust originally, just to the 2.4Mhz stardust. I think there's a guy on WUS who has a couple of them though, or maybe one and a couple of 18k 1300s. I guess they were a lot more affordable 10 years ago...

 

I've just recently inherited this one from 1977 but am looking for any information I can get about it - I'll get some better images shortly but any help gratefully received! (No box, but papers for this one) Thanks, Matt

 

Ive got me a serious Jones for some of that shit right there!

 

It looks like reference BA 191.0003 (not on Omega Vintage site...) to me, 34 x 44.7 x 11 mm. More pics would be great indeed.

 

Thanks for that - I've been given a Constellation specific site that I'll check out and also will post more pics here that are larger, clearer and show more detail.
Cheers
Matt

 

Ok, what site is that? I'm not aware of too many places where these EQs are discussed ;-)

 

Sorry for the late replay - it is the http://omega-constellation-collectors.blogspot.com.au which you are undoubtedly aware of - (I wasn't).

I can't find much on EQs there though - still searching! The good news is mine is humming away happily - I'm waiting on a new strap and I'll post some better quality pics.
cheers

 

Yes, the webmaster posts here, but I'm not aware of any articles about the rare EQ watches over there. Did you get a chance to take more pics? I still think it's a BA 191.0003.

 

Hi webvan - here are some pics on an interim strap - still trying to decide what I want to go with. It is definitely a 191.0003 - that is stamped inside the case

 

Putting that watch in NATO strap

 

I don't mind the look of it on the Nato - but it is going on to a good quality leather strap once I source a replacement Omega buckle. (Although I might keep it on the nato for a while for Privateday7's ongoing amusement. )
