Omega Constellation 168.009

Hello I own an Omega 168009 and would like some additional information: is the certificate genuine and does it match the watch? Also, could anyone tell me the approximate net weight of this watch? Mine weighs 49.2 grams without the strap; could the net weight be around 34–35 grams? Could the dial be made of solid gold? I look forward to your replies—thank you in advance.

Presumably you have seen the inner case back and it says 168.009?
Omega also used different references for gold watches, often seen in sales catalogues.

I’m not up on the alternative references but the movt serial on the papers matches your watch.

Omega produced some credible look alike gold dials for this reference, so the only way to be sure would be to see the back of the dial.

This thread by @kfranzk may help with the case weight.
