Hello everyone. I wanted to know if the Omega Constellation pie pan that my grandfather gave to me is original. For now I don't have photos of the movement but I will certainly add later. It's a stainless steel Constellation pie pan with Datejust, It have some bubbles dots in the dial maybe from humidity that indicates it has a long time. Here are the pics.

Hello,
Nice gift from you grandfather.
Certainly not fake it looks all original from what I can see.
Going off the 527 end links the bracelet size will be 19mm which means this must be a reference 168.010.
The spotting looks fairly even and probably not noticeable on the wrist.
If it’s not been serviced for a while it’s worth getting it checked over by a watchmaker.

Hello Noddyman and thank you for your amazing answer! I'm glad to hear that it's original! I think my grandpa told me that it was serviced , before he gave it to me. I've never dare to ask him if it was original haha, because you know a gift is a gift. I'm a newbie in the watch department so I saw this place and I felt the urge to ask experienced people for an opinion. Thanks again for the answer and I hope you have a great day!

Also by the steep pie pan dial as opposed to the very low profile on the .004 😀

Hello! Thank you very much for the answer. By steep you mean pronounced pie pan right?
