Omega - Constellation - No reserve price - 168.044 - Men - 1970-1979

The Omega Constellation from the 1970s (reference 168.044) belongs to a revered collection introduced in the 1950s that has evolved into one of Omega's flagship lines symbolizing precision and elegance. The Constellation series is distinguished by its chronometer-certified movements and iconic design elements, such as the 'claws' or 'griffes' on the case and the star emblem on the dial symbolizing accuracy. Watches from the 1970s exhibit stylish vintage aesthetics characteristic of that era, including unique dial patterns, integrated metal bracelets, and varied case shapes like tonneau or round forms. Omega's Constellation models combine refined dress watch looks with robust Swiss mechanical or quartz movements, making them sought-after by collectors who appreciate classic design with strong horological pedigree. This decade is notable for Omega's experimentation with designs and adoption of quartz technology, so models from this period bridge traditional craftsmanship and new electronic horology innovations.
