Caliber Omega 751 Fully serviced by my realiable watchmaker in December 2023 (fully disassambled, cleaned, oiled and adjusted + new gaskets. Not a cheap job).

The orgiginal bracelet suits my 19cm wrist, but the watch will be provided with the extra links removed to adjust my wrist. The watch includes the genuine red leather Omega box in prety Good coondition for its age. Designed by the renowned Gerald Genta, this is one of the most scarced and searched by collectors models of the Constellation family. In adition, this unit has been made in 1969, the same year Neil Arstrong sat his footprint on the moon. THE OMEGA CONSTELLLATION 168.129 C-CASE In 1964, Omega launched their first Constellation with the “C” case, so-called due to the case’s resemblance to two mirrored Cs. The “C” case was a departure from the more traditionally shaped Constellations of the 1950s; this model, the Ref. 168.029 which was introduced in 1967, continued the trend with its relatively slim case and combinations of satined and polished finishes. The watch has a lovely grey satin finished dial with contrasting white tracks, signature and legend. A long aperture displays the day and date indication and the date itself has a quick-set facility via the secondary crown setting. The watch is fitted to its original tile link Omega bracelet with adjustable folding clasp.
