I recently bought a 35mm omega constellation ref# 12320352002002. This is my first omega and I am super happy with the purchase. Enough so that I wanted to share it with y’all and see what yall think. It came as a full set in immaculate condition. The card is dated 2014 and everything lines up. There are minimal scratches/scuffs anywhere on the watch. It actually had some of the original stickers still on it. I was able to pick it up for under $2000. Thanks for taking a look

If it’s legit that is a decent pickup and a considerable savings.

can you post pictures of the back of the watch please?

Not to my taste, but seems like a good price if you like it.

Thank you guys

I needed a dress watch and this checks the boxes. I also like that no one else will be wearing the same watch as me at an event or gathering.

A lot of people don't like Manhattan Constellations, indeed they have a hatred of them, me, I don't mind them, I find them quite distinctive...I must do I have 2 of them

Yeah I don’t get the hate. The bracelet is amazing. The matte appearance to the brushed aluminum looks very classy

Hmmm what year was that. Seems like a “cheap” catch for an astronaut owned watch pretty cool. Oh I see now 2 years ago kinda surprised weren’t watches still high then?

They were. That's the thing about auctions, depends on who's bidding that day. I bid on it up to about 2k. It was a good deal. Still think I probably should have kept bidding.

Seriously dude with your passion for space I am surprised you don’t have it on the mantel. It just seems like a perfect fit. I’m not sayin 3k plus is spare change but in this thing we are in (nod to the mob) it really seems like a deal to a collector.
