OMEGA Constellation Megaquartz 32 with beautiful black dial, £ 600

Selling my OMEGA Constellation Megaquartz 32 with beautiful black dial in excellent condition.

The previous owner, a gentleman from the french part of Switzerland, has given me the following information concerning the history of this watch: The watch came to him from the original owner, a former Omega employee. It was an anniversary gift by Omega and at that time employees got the possibility to configure these watches themselves. He chose to install a very beautiful black dial that was otherwise not available on that reference. I am not in the position to prove that this really is a one-off by Omega, but the information sounds plausible to me.

Case: Excellent condition (there are some scratches present).
Caseback: Very good condition (there are scratches present).
Crown and Pushers: Looking good and working as they should.
Crystal: Sapphire crystal, mint condition. Imperfections on pics are dust particles present.
Dial: Mint condition. Imperfections on pics are dust particles present.
Hands: Mint condition. Tritium shows desired yellowish patina.
Movement: Omega Cal. 1310 with french day-wheel. Running very precise within a few seconds per month (or much less than 1 s/d). No known service history.
Bracelet: Reference correct and desired Omega 1210/202 bracelet in excellent condition (there are some scratches present).

Pictures are part of the description. Please excuse dust and spots present in pictures.

The watch is not returnable.

Price: £ 600.00, CHF 790.00 or EUR 685.00 net to me.

Worldwide shipping by carrier of my choice included. Insurance and taxes are buyers responsibility. Payment by TransferWise, PayPal F&F or wire transfer. The watch is located in Switzerland. In the not too distant future (within the next month) i will be travelling to Germany and could send from there, aswell.

Thank you to OF for this sales facility and to you for reading my post.



This last picture has been taken in different lighting, but does show all the script very well:

To answer some questions i got by PM:

Booklet (as the only paperwork present) is included in the sale.

The watch is 38mm without crown. Lug to lug (or the length, as lugs are integrated) it is 43mm. Don't let the 38mm fool you. This is a big watch.

With the mounted bracelet it should fit a wrist up to 18.5 to 19cm. If this should be too short, i would throw in another link from a different 1210/202.

A big thank you goes to @arsmax for checking this watch with the Omega Archives. He got following info:

"...Malheureusement, je ne trouve pas d'information pour cette montre, à part une date de livraison en Juin 1980, mais c'est tout.
D'après d'autres information, le cadran était plutôt argenté que gris foncé comme sur la photo..."

("...Unfortunately, I can not find any information for this watch, except for a delivery date in June 1980, but that's it. According to other information, the dial was rather silvery than dark gray as in the picture...")

@arsmax commented on his own: "Unfortunately there are not information about the reference (hole in the archive about this information). They know only that this watch with the specific serial number was delivered in 1980. Nevertheless, the information about the incorrect dial was only comparing this model to the standard reference. We cannot know if it was delivered with some “special” variation of the dial."

So that black/dark grey dial remains a mystery, as i have never seen another watch featuring it.

But maybe you have? If you know another watch or even a reference featuring it, i am all ears.

Your help is much appreciated. Thank you very much.

I have set up a new thread for that purpose here: https://omegaforums.net/threads/mystery-black-dark-grey-omega-quartz-constellation-dial.69891/
