On the dial: the name Constellation highlighted by an applied gold star. On the case back: the famous medallion featuring an observatory crowned by a constellation of eight stars, evoking the numeros exploits of Omega in world chronometer competition, among which are the famous world precision records set in 1933 and 1936.

The case is unpolished, the crown is original, the crystal is original, the strap and buckle is original, the dial is original and even the yellow original gasket is intact!
