This is a lovely old watch in excellent condition. It’s an Omega Constellation Chronometer in a 35mm stainless steel case with a gold cap over the lugs and what I believe is a 14K gold bezel.

The watch has a 24 jewel Omega Calibre 551 chronometer-rated movement that is keeping superb time.

The screw-down case-back is stainless steel, and features the famous gold Omega Observatory medallion in the centre.

The dial & hands are original and in excellent condition.

The watch is signed five times: case, dial. crown, movement, crystal. The crystal could use about 3 or 4 seconds on a finishing wheel.

The watch is fitted with a lizard grain calf strap, and it is ready to wear . . .

$599 plus actual carriage.
