Hello.
I’m newto this site and have a question.
I received a Constellation from my stepfather that has started me on this great hobby of watch collecting.
Question... could anyone tell me how he lug size of a 1969 168.015 constellation. I have sent it in for service and would like to order a croc strap.
Thanks.

 

Nice heirloom! I believe the strap size for this watch is 18mm – That was the standard strap size for pretty much all men's dress Omegas at the time (Constellation/Seamaster).

 

you might be right about the 168.015 as IIRC it’s quite a small case but all the other mid-late 60s Constellation arrivals (.010, c-case, .018 etc) had 19mm lug widths.

 

Thanks, I think I should wait until it’s in my hand again. I will order a strap from Arron Bespoke. Former combat straps

 

I will post a before and after pic when it’s back.

 

Ive seen pics with both 18mm and 19mm straps.
I think @gatorcpa has one of these - he may be able to tell you the lug spacing.

 

Could you phone the watch maker and ask him to mike it?

 

It’s back
Got my watch back and I love it. just thought I would share
