    Recently shared a quick shot of my Omega Constellation de Luxe. purchased in Chicago for $642.00 in 1959. All photos have free use, credit is appreciated. Instagram - @MPWATCH

    Hope this is a treat for all of those Constellation collectors out there, to be honest I'd love to learn more about the watch. Feel free to add additional facts, corrections, or issues with the piece below.

    Here is a 1959 Swiss/German catalog page with your watch:

    Note that the silver box was an extra cost option. The 1959 price of $642 makes perfect sense as it took about 4 francs to buy one dollar back then.

    Very nice piece!
