Omega Constellation C-shape
Description
A C-shaped case, a deep blue dial and an original Omega brick bracelet - this is one of my favourite combinations in vintage Omega. I’ve owned this Constellation model several times in my personal collection, and it’s one I keep coming back to. The white gold bezel adds just the right amount of detail against the blue dial, while the original bricks bracelet completes the look.
Dating to circa 1972, this ref. 168.0057 is powered by Omega’s chronometer-rated automatic calibre 1021, with day and date functionality. This example is exceptionally well preserved, with a beautifully maintained deep blue dial and a case that retains its distinctive shape. The condition allows you to appreciate the details that make this configuration so appealing.
For me, this is a true Omega classic: elegant, distinctive and easy to wear every day. Finding one in this condition, with the blue dial and bracelet together, makes it particularly hard to let go. A personal favourite, now available at Yellow Seconds.

-
The crown, bezel, glass and dial are absolutely mint condition. The case and bracelet show normal signs of wear. No particular scratch is worth its own mention - which is a good sign. Overall in very good condition.
The photographs form part of the description, so please review them carefully. Keep in mind that close-up images can make marks and signs of wear appear more noticeable than they are to the naked eye.
