omega constellation auto date chronometer vintage watch - c1966

Overview:
This is a simply beautiful Omega Constellation 'Jumbo', dating from 1966 and in excellent, all-original condition - no changed or restored parts, apart from the replacement lens. Another beauty I’m releasing from my private collection. The photos are dark so you can expect the actual watch to be brighter in reality. It features a stunning original, unrestored silvered dial, a large 36mm steel case, 24 jewel automatic chronometer grade movement [Cal 561] with date function and original signed crown. The watch comes complete with a new Hirsch leather strap and a quality new non-Omega watch box. Vintage Omega Contellations in great original condition make outstanding financial investments.

You can feel confident buying from me. My vintage watch business is my hobby and passion; I co-own venture capital firm Baringxavier (www.baringxavier.com), among other business interests, so I have no interest or need to treat you unprofessionally in any way. And I offer a full refund if you are not entirely happy with your purchase. I also provide a full receipt, six months guarantee (long enough for you to assess working order) and professional insurance valuation (I am approved to provide insurance valuations for high wrist and pocket watches). I also welcome you to come and view the watch at our central London address, in New Bond Street - by appointment only. I offer my customers online prices - below value - with offline availability and service.Case:
