Omega Constellation 168.029

These are Omega 168.029. The watch is fitted with a white gold fluted bezel, and the day-date complication help make this model of Omega Constellation an excellent value proposition. One is fitted with the eye-catching linen dial, and another is a gray dial. These are great example of how the watches has evolved over the decades. 

The watch features many details we have come to love about vintage "Connies" from the collection branding on the dial with an applied star logo to the Geneva Observatory caseback medallion plus a white gold bezel. The dial here has a linen-like finish, adding an extra layer of dimension to the dial The eight stars on this gold tone medallion represent the eight observatory chronometer competitions Omega won in the 20th century. As you might expect, this Constellation was a chronometer-rated watch, with chronometer written right on the dial. It uses the caliber 751.
