A not so common Omega : the Constellation 41mm
The Speedmasters and Seamasters usually get most of the attention in the Omega catalogue.
The brand produces however also other interesting and successful models,like the modern Constellation.
I refer to it as the modern Constellation as the name would reference to the early Constellation models from Omega,the so-called "Connies" with which the actual models have nothing in common,except for the name.
In fact,the Constellation-Manhattan model came out in 1981 and during its 40 years of existance was amongst the most successful models from Omega.
My watch is the new 41mm model of which I would like to show a few pictures:
Steel case and black ceramic bezel.
A very original dial ....
...with a so-called "silk" pattern which changes light with every wrist movement.
As usual with Omega we find great case finishings and details.
The famous "half-moon" case shape.
The Master Chronometer movement with a quartz like precision!
The watch is very comfortable on the wrist thanks to the short lugs and the very good rubber strap.
Thanks for looking,
Gerard
