Omega

My grandfathers old Constellation (circa '53?).  Restored by Omega in 2013  

thank you so much for sharing my grandfather used to wear a seamaster back in the day but it never made its way to me though I now wear a modern seamaster in the same spirit

...Piepan, but also a bumper movement I would guess.  I love the aged dial.

A beautiful patina on a nice guilloche, but not actually a pie pan.  Still a just as desirable watch with large arrowheads.

Thank you everyone!!!  I had asked Omega not to fiddle about with the dial even though the printing is barely visible.  They did change the hands and the crystal, and returned the original to me. 

cicindela:  why do you say that this is not a piepan?  Maybe not apparent from the picture due to the heselite crystal, but the dial is deeply dished in the area where the arrowheads are placed.

hi FGA,

a true piepan Omega dial has 12 distinct sides to it at a sharp angle rather than just being domed. i cant explain it any better other than attach a pic of a true piepan dial.
