Introducing an exceptional Omega Constellation "C" model, a true holiday gem that embodies elegance and timeless style—perfect for making a statement this Christmas. This distinguished watch boasts a clean, gold cap over solid stainless steel case. 
The case, model number 168.017, measures an impressive 35mm across—excluding the crown—and features a lug-to-lug distance of 40.8mm. This substantial yet refined size makes it suitable for a variety of wrist sizes and styles. It is fitted with a brand-new case gasket to ensure water resistance, and the original signed crown adds an authentic touch to its vintage allure.
One of the standout features of this Omega Constellation is its captivating red and black factory original dial, which is in excellent condition. The unique spider-aging texture is a hallmark of vintage watches from the late 1960s to early 1970s, reminiscent of the exquisite dials found on many Rolex watches from this iconic era. This particular aging gives the watch character and depth, making it a true conversation starter.
The original signed acrylic crystal remains in great shape, contributing to the overall pristine appearance of the watch while providing a clear view of the dial. Inside, you'll find a meticulously serviced 24-jewel calibre 564 automatic movement, known for its reliability and smooth operation. This model also features a convenient quick set date function, ensuring that setting the date is as effortless as possible.
The serial number, 27227373, indicates this timepiece dates back to 1968, making it not only a functional accessory but also a piece of horological history. It comes elegantly presented on a high-quality 19mm genuine leather strap, providing comfort and style in equal measure. In the accompanying photo, you'll see a wrist size of 6 inches, allowing potential buyers to envision how this stunning watch would appear on their own wrist.
In summary, this Omega Constellation "C" model is not just a watch; it is a celebration of craftsmanship, a perfect gift, and an heirloom piece that captures the spirit of time. Whether you are adding it to your collection or giving it to a loved one, this timepiece is sure to be cherished for years to come.
