    Firstly thanks to Phil / @Peemacgee for helping me decipher what I've got for sale.

    Manufacturer
    It's an 18k solid gold Schackmann cased Omega Constellation with OWC (Omega Watch Co) and London assay mark (Leopard head)

    Date
    24,6xx dates the movement to around '67 small scripted 'm' hallmark dates the case to '68

    Case
    34mm dial case (exc crown) 18k solid gold

    Dial

    Gold dome dial with gold furniture and onyx inserts. Looks like a redial to me judging by the pointy 'A's' which should be flat topped.

    Hands
    Gold pencil hands, believed to be original? Missing a bit of black paint

    Crown
    A lot of English cased Constellations appear to have this style of crown so believe to be original

    Bracelet
    Hallmarked with D S&S which again is a Schackmann, 18k solid gold.
    Bracelet is soldered onto the lugs, no idea why this was done.

    Service history
    Not known but sat in a safe for 30 years so will definitely need a service.

    Price
    No idea how to price this but as there is approx 90g of gold in the case and watch then the melt value is circa £2500.00 alone.
    Also can split the head from the bracelet if any interest in either.

    Looking for £4000.00 fully insured by RMSD within the UK, can ship worldwide at cost

    Any further info / pictures let me know. Happy for people to contribute any addional info / errors direct to the thread instead of by PM.

    Thanks for looking.

    Is that 90g sans movement & crystal ?

    Not surprised the DS&S is gold soldered directly to case…my 1956 ‘2852’ is exactly the same

    Separating the two…bracelet / watchcase, may not be that easy
