Suspicious of Constellation.

New here, and found these 2 Constellations and based on things I've read (here and elsewhere) I'm looking for validation that these are either fakes, or an education as to what I should be focusing on.

Why I think they're not genuine:
"Omega" symbol appears painted onto dial face.
Claims to be a Constellation but no "star" above the 6.
Second hand doesn't reach all the way to the minute markers.
Hands appear to be wrong style.

I respect some are apprehensive of foreign links so I've posted pics.

Not going to say for sure it’s real, it it does look like a 1980s vintage constellation. Here’s a link about a gold one with a very similar dial.

Even if you mean 1111 your still wrong. It went from 1984 to 1993 at least....

I think it has been in production for less than two years, from 1984 circa 1986

According to Ranfft 1984-1993, its a modified 2892.
