Hello OF
For sale here is an Omega Constellation Ref 168.018 with 1038 Omega bracelet. The caseback features an engraved 1970 and an unusual 'Volkswagen' logo - apparently it was a presentation gift to the UK top VW salesman in that year. So for VW collectors - or Beastie Boy fans - this is a must!
Offered for £950 which I think is pretty fair since it includes the rare (and very nice) bracelet. Royal Mail special delivery in the UK £8.00, elsewhere to be discussed.
Case - steel case is very sharp, no signs of polishing, 35mm excluding crown. The thin bezel makes the dial look large and it wears well. Original crown and caseback features the Constellation observatory logo and the aforementioned engraving, which does make this rather special.
Dial - Silver sunburst with applied Omega logo and script and constellation star, applied indices with black inserts and tritium plots. The tritium on the hour plots and hands has aged to an attractive yellow. There is one flaw - a discolouration between 11 and 12 indices. Its not easy to see in daylight and hard to photograph but I've included a pic below.
Crystal - original with inlaid Omega logo in the centre.
Bracelet - 1038 stainless steel bracelet in great condition with Omega logo on clasp with correct 555 end links, this is the correct bracelet for this reference and very nice it is too. Worth a couple of hundred on its own. I really like this bracelet, as it features flat sections that contrast very nicely with the beads of rice links. I honestly think this is the nicest Omega bracelet I've ever experienced.
Movement - Omega calibre 564 chronometer. Running fine and crown, hands and date setting all functioning correctly. No service history on this I'm afraid so would advise a trip to your watchmaker.
Pics below - thanks OF as always for a fantastic resource and the space, thanks for looking, and hope you enjoy the pics -
