Which Constellation is this?
I bought this Constellation today, but the the seller knew nothing about watches and I had no opportunity to see the watch before buying. My sister picked up the clock at the other end of the country, so it lasts a little while before I get the clock home.
I was missing a C-shaped Constellation in my collection, so I took a chance and bought it.
I know the clock is from ca.1970 and that it was sent in to Omega and was refurbished in approx. 1991st The clock should not have been used since.
Maybe one of you can decide which model I have got hold of from this picture.
I think it is either ref. 168,039 with cal. 564 or 168.009/168.017 with cal. 564.
Does anyone have an idea what I bought?

Nice addition Thomas. Your guess are on the mark, I am sure it will turn out to be one of your references, maybe a 561. Here is my Connie 168.0017 stainless with a 561....

I love the steel Constellations, but I only have goldcapped versions. The C-shaped looks reel nice in steel, maybee even better than goldcapped, it is on my "want to buy" list Best Thomas
It certainly looks a nice piece
I don't have one of the C shape Connies but I think that the shape is growing on me. Finding a good one that hasn't been over-polished is the problem - most gold capped ones I've come across have been a bit battered but yours looks great and well cared fo...
