    I have an Omega Constellation which I believe is a 168.009 in white gold with a white gold brickwork bracelet, and I am looking to find the value of it. I have been unable to find anything online and am hoping someone may be able to help please?

    Pictures. We need 'em. Set the hands to 8:46 so we can see all the script on the dial please.

    We'd need a better look at the dial to confirm it's the original finish, but it looks good so far. I have the same watch in yellow gold with the same bracelet. If it is white gold (better lighting would help in your shots) it's quite a valuable watch. There's over $4k in scrap value alone, but don't melt it because you should easily get $6k for it even though it's probably in need of a service for the movement.

    ps - don't be confused by some eBay listings and their ASKING price. You could ASK $30k for a Seiko 009 but you won't get it. ;)

    No, don't think they did back then. Might be one now - I've seen the new De Villes with the dual humped edges (like on the Grand Luxe Constellations) in ss.

    There's a /sort of/ brick-ish bracelet for the steel versions but it is nowhere near as fine, and much more block-y looking.

    Yeah I've owned the coarser brick bracelet, it came on a C case Connie.
