The Condition
This is a beauty!
Omega did a couple of different dial configurations for the Constellation model. Here we got the most sought after with black onyx inlay in index’ and hands and with sunburst. Beautiful, isn’t? The dial is 100% factory original and as you can see in very good condition.
The case and caseback is in very good condition with sharp lines and original bevels. The only thing to notice is that there is a ding on the bottom left lug. It’s more or less visible depending on light and angel.
The crystal is new so no scratches there.
The watch really is as nice as it looks in the pictures!
Sold as "serviced”!
