Omega Constellation Automatic Pie Pan Dog Leg 18K Ref. 167.005 – A Rare and Symmetrical Masterpiece (1966)
We are delighted to showcase the Omega Constellation Ref. 167.005, a highly uncommon and symmetrical "no date" variant. This exceptional example, crafted in 18K yellow gold, features a stunning silver Pie Pan dial with onyx indices, exuding timeless elegance and balance. Bearing a serial number of 24.4 million, this watch confirms production in 1966, adding historical significance to its remarkable condition.
Unmatched Design and Condition
The absence of a date window enhances the perfect symmetry of the dial, setting this piece apart as one of the most harmonious and desirable iterations of the Constellation. The silver-tone Pie Pan dial is in exceptional condition, with sharp, contrasting onyx hour markers that add a refined touch to its captivating aesthetic.
The 34mm solid 18K yellow gold case, with its iconic dog-leg lugs, remains exceptionally well-preserved. These angular lugs, a hallmark of this reference, retain their crisp edges, underscoring the watch’s lightly worn and carefully maintained history. On the reverse, the iconic observatory emblem surrounded by eight stars remains deeply engraved—a testament to Omega’s chronometer legacy.
Legendary Movement
Inside this Constellation beats the Omega Caliber 551, an automatic, chronometer-grade movement renowned for its precision and reliability. This movement exemplifies Omega’s engineering excellence and is a true marvel for enthusiasts.
Rare and Collectible
Finding a no-date Omega Constellation Ref. 167.005 is already a challenge, but discovering one in 18K gold with a flawless silver dial and onyx indices elevates this piece into a class of its own. The production year of 1966 adds historical context to this particular watch, making it an even more fascinating addition to a collector’s portfolio.
