Constellation Box and papers

GordanDaniel · Feb 1, 2020

Hello Omega Forum !
i am a new (ish) omega lover and i have a few questions.
i am wondering about box and paperwork for vintage watches.
Neither of my vintage omegas have any paperwork to go with them, so i have been looking across the web for boxes that i could purchase to go with them.
The first is a family heirloom that was my great grandfathers

and the second is my recently purchased 168.015.

so my question is which box types should i be looking for?
Is it possible to piece together paper work that could go with them ?
say the chronometer guarantee, warranty etc ?

Thanks in advance OF
G.

Very difficult to do. 90% of these were thrown away at some point. The chronometer certificates were tied to the serial number of the movements, so they really can't be replaced.

Boxes were specific to markets. A box for a watch purchased in the US might be different from one purchased in the UK for example.

Not to detract from the OP thread. But holymoly what a set🥰. I assume a few dozen dibs have been called already? 😜

Now my question is,
which box does my cal 564 certified chronometer usually come in, assuming a north american sale.
Through google searches i have seen a few different ones. One says "officially certified chronometer" on it,
others of the same watch came in a smaller, rectangle shaped box that only fits the watch itself, with nothing else.

Wow. Do you have access to a time machine? I would like to hitch a ride next time you go.
