·Hello everyone,
I have a 1961 Omega Constellation Pie Pan 14900 with a silver (white) crosshair dial and I'm wondering which metal Omega used for the dial itself. Is it brass or something else?
I'm asking this because, in the case of a vintage Cartier Tank, I once witnessed a small rust dot appearing on the dial after wearing it for a long period, possibly in a humid environment. A vintage Cartier specialist told me it was rust, indicating that the dial was likely made of non-stainless steel (?)
What about the Constellation? Could something similar happen? There are already a few small dots from the past, but they appeared before I acquired the watch, and I'm uncertain about the reason.
Thank you.
