The Omega Constellation ref. 14393 was Omega's flagship dress watch around the turn of the 1960s, and it represented everything the brand stood for at the time: chronometric precision, beautiful finishing, and versatility.
Most examples came with silver or champagne pie-pan dials, which makes this black dial version a genuinely rare find, and one that collectors of early Constellations know to look for.
The glossy black surface gives the crosshair pattern and the gold applied markers a depth and contrast you simply cannot get on the more common silver iterations. There is something so fascinating about old gilt dials which you do not see anymore on modern references.
The gold dauphine hands, the applied Omega logo, and the small star above "Constellation" all catch the light beautifully against that dark background.
Inside beats the caliber 561, a chronometer-certified automatic movement with Omega's signature copper finishing, already celebrated here many times for its precision and reliability.
The caseback carries the classic gold observatory medallion, well preserved with all eight stars still visible. The case is honest and even if polished in the past, it retains its original geometry.
Together with the purchase, you receive a one-year warranty and a Timegrapher report showing amplitude, rate, and beat error, proof of its mechanical health.
