I have wanted a Omega since a was a teenager. Yesterday a bout my first I hope. I can't wait to get it. Can anybody see if it is a genuine Omega?

I think most people here can see that it's not. Sorry.

Is it a quartz movement?

Apart from the off dial, I'm pretty sure Omega didn't make a fully 18k women's constellation nor did they hallmark the outside.

EDIT: Most of the ones I've seen also have 'Swiss Made' on the dial.

I have seen this or very similar watches elsewhere. My first inclination is to say it’s not legit but omega made a lot of odd variations on women’s watches. Did the seller give you a reference number by any chance

Looks fairly similar to this one, but I'm worried it might be a knock-off. The SWISS MADE is missing, and the case-back engraving doesn't look great.

I believe all solid gold ladies Constellations should have a conservatory caseback.

You got me there. This isolation isn't good for my alcohol consumption.

I'ts great for mine. I have taken to putting out my glass recycling during the Thursday night clap-fest so the neighbours just think I am being enthusiastic with the racket all the extra bottles make.

Thank God - I thought it was just me doing that...

Regarding the OP watch, engraving notwithstanding, does it look odd to anyone else that the “Constellation” lettering on the dial has the new type with identical n, but the caseback seems to have the older style lettering with different n's?

EDIT: actually not so sure about this - caseback picture isn’t great...

Thank you all. I got it in the mail today. I took it to the local Omega watchmaker. He confirmed that it is a genuine Omega. I am so happy.

Good to hear it. I learned my lesson not trying to distinguish amongst women’s watches I’m very glad your happy enjoy
