Hi ,
I am very pleased I happened across this thread and the photo that Gatorcpa posted of a Hand wind Omega Globemaster .
I have what seems to be the same watch and have been trying to find out more about it since I acquired it about 10 years ago .
Because of the Globemaster name I came to believe that it was a tariff import to the USA in the 50's . TWA sued for infringement of the name Constellation so The Importer changed the name from Constellation to Globemaster to get around high tariffs the USA imposed on Swiss watches .
The movements were imported and cased in STAR watch cases among others I believe .
Pardon if my recollection of these accounts is not precise as it has been a while since I did some of this history research .
I would appreciate any info on this watch even if it's negative ..............Thanks..........
