I bought this watch from a local jeweler/watchmaker about 15 years ago for $500. I know the dial was refinished some years before and the lettering seems wrong on about everything but the applied Omega logo and name. However, I have seen the Constellation font similar to this one on other dials. IIRC, it has the 561 movement. Gold capped lugs and a 14k bezel. Dial looks gold in the image (white balance off) but is actually silver with gold indices and hands. The lume works but fades quickly and the medallion on the back case has been incredibly over polished. You can see the observatory and one star but everything else is soft.
I've wondered about trying another dial refin but they seem so iffy and the watch isn't going to be for sale in my lifetime so I'll likely live with this dial. I think the hands, crown, and everything else is correct.
The watch is awfully similar to this one on Omega's website. It's been so long since the caseback was opened, I just don't recall the ref number.
