Vintage Omega Constellation C-shape, Cal. 564, Date Window, Gold-rose C-shape case, from 1960's

Since its launch in 1952, the Constellation has been Omega’s flagship for precision and elegance. By 1964, the line embraced the now-iconic C-shaped case, reflecting modernist design and growing preferences for larger, integrated case styles. These models continued Omega’s legacy of precision with chronometer-certified calibers, and were marketed as watches “for the man who already has a watch” — highlighting their elevated status.

Powering this piece is the Omega Caliber 564, a chronometer-certified automatic movement with a quickset date, housed behind a caseback engraved with the iconic Geneva Observatory medallion surrounded by eight stars — a nod to Omega’s award-winning performance in chronometry competitions.

The silver sunburst dial is minimalist and elegant, featuring applied hour markers, slim black onyx inlays, and the signature gold star above 6 o’clock, denoting the Constellation name. The original Omega-signed crown and matching rose gold-plated bracelet complete the look.
