Hi everyone!馃榾

I would like to share another new incoming watch in my collection.
It was a pink gold cap omega constellation reference 168.005 (maybe someone call rose gold case?).
The serial number is 20,990,xxx with caliber 561.

In my opinion, it comes with the original very clean dial plus with black onyx insert hour markers.
The case is the pink gold cap case which is quite uncommon, however, white gold is the hardest to find.
The crown is a correct thin decagonal type.
The crown and medallion come with matching pink gold color.
The case was some polished in the past but it鈥檚 still OK.




Please note that the color of the hour-markers not the yellow color, even it鈥檚 difficult to capture.馃憤
Also, these hour-markers match with the hands and case.




My wrist shot:


I compare the yellow gold (left-hand side, ref.167.005) and pink gold (right-hand side, ref.168.005).

Thanks for watching and the comments, please share your pinkgold constellation!!馃槈
Thanks omegaforum鈥檚 member who always answer my questions via p.m.
Best,
Teerapat

Hi @qazwsx1,

first of all: congratulations! The dial looks really good and I love the warm pink-gold tone. Wear it in good health! 馃榾

Congrats,

What do you think of the reversed star?

On some dials I enjoy it, but it sometimes bothers me as well

It is called wonky star, I think. It happens on a lot of dials and easy to fix.

I was lucky enough to find a pink gold bracelet that works really well with this watch. It鈥檚 a ref. 8270 with No. 70 end links.

These bracelets don鈥檛 seem to come up very often鈥攊n fact, finding one may be even harder than finding the watch itself!



Finally got it fitted, so here鈥檚 a wrist shot. 馃槉
