Dear Experts, Do any of you know what case this may be? It has a 1011 movement inside and the bezel is white gold apparently. Thanks for your help. Andrew
Looks like a Ref. 168.0065. Not sure if the fluted bezel is original to the watch. At least I've never seen one before. These were once thought to be extremely rare, but many have turned up the last few years. There are several threads on this forum about this model: https://omegaforums.net/search/4479745/?q=Constellation+168.0065&o=date Hope this helps, gatorcpa
gatorcpa, That's exactly what I thought. The case and dial look like the 168.0065 but the bezel seems odd! Thanks for the feedback Andrew
Another argument for the 168.0065 is that doesnt have the star in the dial either. as for the movement, there seems to be conflicting messages regarding the 1011 vs the 551 and 561. I'm still a novice but my understand is that the 1011 is one of the last movement made for this watch and that if garners great respect as a very reliable movement (just stay away from 1001,1002, and 1003 as I hear they have a lot of problems. I'm sure the group can weigh in on if it's a good movement and wortg collecting. I've actually been looking into getting one myself
This item has been around for quiet sometimes, I think. No taker...maybe it's too expensive or...maybe because the bezel seems "fishy". I think, originally it shouldn't come with oyster type bezel. Just my 2cent.
