Very rare Omega Constellation 2782-10SC ?

Hello everyone,

I recently acquired this Omega Constellation 2782-10SC, which the dealer dates to 1954. It has a calibre 354 bumper movement and is described by the dealer as an original “Star Dust” dial (the beautiful aging made me fall in love).

What particularly caught my attention are the applied hour markers.

They are highly faceted and almost prism-like. The markers at 3, 6, 9 and 12 have a distinctive bifurcated appearance, but seem to be made as a single applied piece rather than two separate markers (no space between them ?). The other hours have single markers with the same faceted geometry.

I have spent quite a lot of time trying to find another 2782 with exactly the same markers, but I have not been able to find a convincing match.

I am not asking whether the watch is genuine - it was purchased from a specialist vintage watch dealer in Paris, and the dealer states that the dial is original.

What I would really like to understand is:

Does anyone know this specific style of faceted markers, and when Omega used them on the 2782 / 2782-10SC?

Maybe this time piece is more rare and more valuable than I expected at first?

I would be particularly interested in examples with known movement serial numbers, as I am trying to establish a possible production period for this dial furniture.

Any information, catalogue references or examples from private collections would be greatly appreciated.

To all my fellow passionates,

Thank you!

Thank you very much for the answer !

Beautiful piece you have here.

I indeed saw several Seamasters with either the 3-6-9-12 double markers or the single markers on other numbers, but never both. It was a struggle to find something similar on Constellation.

I deeply appreciate your honesty and expertise.

Do you have a doubt on whether it's genuine or not ?

It's my very first Omega watch and even though I am very interested into them for a while, I do have a lot to learn.

Is the watch missing its bezel?
