The Watch
Omega released the first Constellation in 1952, and it's still a cornerstone of the modern brand. Our Constellation dates to circa 1956 and features a few characteristics that would go on to define the collection over time. The dial has the Constellation branding on it, of course, as well as an applied star logo. The caseback features a depiction of the Geneva Observatory with eight stars that represent the eight observatory chronometer competitions Omega won in the 20th century. As you might expect, this Constellation was a chronometer-rated watch – it says so right on the dial.
The Constellation was Omega's answer to what a technically superior dress wristwatch could look like. On this platform, the brand really stretched its legs from a design perspective. From cross-hair dials to arrowhead styled applied markers, like the example we got here.
