Vintage Omega Constellation C-shape, Cal. 564, Date Window, Rare "Frosty" Dial from 1960's

Omega Constellation is an icon on its own, the line has been one of the longest-running watches out there. This one was produced in the late 1960s, and features the distinctive C-shape case introduced in 1964 — a design created by none other than Gérald Genta, the legendary mind behind the Patek Philippe Nautilus and Audemars Piguet Royal Oak.

The 35mm stainless steel case remains in completely original condition, including the Omega-signed acrylic crystal, preserving the sharp lines and brushed surfaces that define this mid-century icon. The case houses the chronometer-rated automatic Caliber 564, with quickset date function, known for its robustness and accuracy.

But the real showstopper is the rare “frosty” silver dial — a vertically brushed texture that catches light beautifully and adds a subtle layer of visual depth. The minimalist applied markers and slim black hands give the watch a refined, almost architectural aesthetic.
