I have shown this simple 1967 steel Omega Constellation with pie pan dial before (the reference is 167.005), but I thought you might enjoy seeing the full packaging that came with it. Packaging, in addition to contemporary advertisements, adds to the historical context and enjoyment of the watch.
I love these ‘no-date’ (Cal. 551) Connie’s for their clean lines and beautiful dial that you could spend a lifetime looking at.
Simple but attractive satin lining …
And attached to the strap …
Based on CPI inflation, USD175 in 1971 is equivalent to USD1,010 in 2013. The Connie has maintained its purchase price quite well over the last 40 years.
Lined envelope with serial number containing the Certificate of High Precision.
“Officially certified chronometer with especially good results”.
Padding …
“The Omega Constellation chronometer distinguishes the man who wears it as someone who knows how to choose.”
