FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS A ONE OWNER 1962 OMEGA CONSTELLATION REFERENCE 14902 CALIBER 561 CHRONOMETER. JUST SERVICED.
- CASE: GORGEOUS ALL STEEL CASE IN SUPER SHARP CONDITION. THIS BEAUTY MEASURES 34mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING SIGNED CROWN BY 42.5mm LUG TO LUG. LOOK AT THOSE SHARP CHAMFERS ON THOSE LUGS. THE OBSERVATORY TOWER IS FULLY INTACT AND SHARP ON THE CASEBACK. THERE ARE SOME MINOR CASE OPENING MARKS ON THE BACK, BUT OVERALL THIS ONE IS IN SHARP AND UNPOLISHED CONDITION.
- DIAL: CAN YOU GET SEXIER THAN A CONNIE PIE PAN DIAL? I THINK NOT. THIS ONE IS IN REALLY NICE CONDITION. I LOVE THOSE HEARTY APPLIED STEEL/ONYX MARKERS WHICH REALLY POP WITH THE PIE-PAN LAYOUT. I LOVE THOSE SHARP DAUPHINE HANDS. THIS ONE LOOKS SUPER CLEAN.
- MOVEMENT: THIS OMEGA RUNS ON A 24 JEWEL IN-HOUSE OMEGA CHRONOMETER GRADE CAL.561 AUTOMATIC. WATCH JUST RECEIVED A SERVICE AND IS RUNNING STRONG. THESE ARE SOME OF THE FINEST CALIBERS EVER MADE.
THIS STUNNER IS MOUNTED ON WHAT I BELIEVE IS THE ORIGINAL 7-LINK OMEGA BEADS OF RICE BRACELET WITH "11" END-LINKS. THIS ONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIT UP TO AN 8" WRIST WITH PLENTY OF REMOVEABLE LINKS. THIS OMEGA WAS DISCOVERED BY ME IN A BOX FULL OF OLD JUNKY WATCHES THAT USED TO BELONG TO MY PATIENT'S FATHER WHO BOUGHT THE WATCH NEW. APPARENTLY, THIS WAS HIS DAILY WATCH AS HE SERVED AS A JUDGE IN IOWA BACK IN THE 60s-80s. MY PATIENT WAS GOING TO BRING THIS ONE TO GOODWILL THINKING IT WAS JUNK, BUT THEN I MENTIONED TO HIM THAT I'M RETROWATCHGUY......AND, WELL, HERE IT IS. THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC OMEGAS EVER MADE.
