Hi, looking to purchase an omega constellation and is hoping to get some idea on its authenticity and value. Have been looking at the constellation range for a while now and they seem to be around sub USD 1k. Not too much info provided on the watch. It’s an 168.016 with cal 751. The movement looks fine I think...but the dial looks a bit new, perhaps a redial? What are your thoughts on the value for this watch?
Most I've seen from this model came with a curly 'n' but i think you can find them as well with the straight n. Do i see some moisture intrusion? And where are the minutemarkers between 11 and 12?
Yes, and those marks around the edge of the dial may mean water ingress at some point in the past, what is hidden under the rotor? Personally I would keep looking
Good looking case. But as above, water damage to the dial and the movement looks tired. These later round case Connies are still plentiful and (relatively) inexpensive so hold out for a really good version. -and IMHO go for a date only version as the dial is just too crowded with a day date.
