When I wrote about this reference here: https://stories.omegaforums.net/the-constellation-cal-712-ultra-thin-167-021-chronometer/
I did note a crosshatch grey dial but without burgundy furniture, just grey dial and black furniture. Its similar to yours but it was the only example I could find at the time so I didn’t include it.
Given how similar they are it might well be that the crosshatch grey option is an original pattern, the burgundy tops though are a really odd touch, not without precedent but very odd regardless.
Hi Dsio, thanks for your input, great to learn fm your photo that is the same index cutting style as mine, because I didn't find this type index cutting shape at the common 167

I got a 60s constellation 167.021 with cal. 712, it has a special grey crosshatch dial, white logo and different shape cutting index with burgundy top (see attached), it is rare, till now I only find one exactly the same at chrono24, do you know this dial is original fm omega? Plls share your comment. Tks!
Just read your piece, thanks. Very interesting watch and like you said fly's under the radar.
Hi Cais,
Any comment on my this grey dial burgundy index,? I love it because it is ultra slim, to meet this, omega applied thin case, flat lugs, flat plexglass, stick hands. I think this special shape index make the index looks thinner than the common index shape, what do you think? Did you see this before?
