It’s a 28,9 million serial, so it’s from 1969. It’s an HF case. The 1037 bracelet is an absolute killer on this watch; looks and wears perfectly.
Later this week i hope to see some more daylight and have some more time for good pictures!

Does anyone have some advice for some good background information on the Constellation? I’ve read quite some on it, but always curious for a good reading!

This is where you should go for starters:

http://omega-constellation-collectors.blogspot.com/

Dozens of articles on specific models there.

After that, there are hundreds more sites that have information on Omega Constellations.

Late to the party...with two pieces in configurations which haven't been featured in this thread yet... A silver crosshair no-date and an arabic numerals version. Note that I'm stretching the thread a little as the first one is a 14900.



I'll take better pictures shortly, promised. This one isn't not doing them justice at all. 😬

Sun makes everything look better. Errhm… perhaps nog everything. It makes this Constellation look amazing, at least. 😀

My 168.005 today. You might have seen it in the sales forum for sale, but I’m enjoying wearing it in the meantime whilst I continue to search for a crosshair date one.

Subtle differences between the left and right, all three interesting. 😀


Be warned... as a recently converted Constellation fan, I can assure you this is almost as much of a rabbit hole as Speedmasters are. 😁
