Omega Constellation C-Shape 168.029 (1967)
This watch, produced in 1967, bears the reference 168.029. It is a pre-owned Omega watch from the Constellation collection, distinguished by its cushion-shaped case (known as the "C-Shape"), a design historically attributed to Gérald Genta. The steel case is topped by an 18-carat white gold fluted bezel. Its silvered dial features a textured "linen" finish (linen dial), with applied baton hour markers and a day-date aperture at 3 o'clock. Powered by the calibre 751, a chronometer-certified automatic mechanical movement (COSC), this vintage automatic watch measures 35mm in width. Its proportions place it within the category of the classic vintage Omega watch, suited to both men's and women's wrists. It is fitted with its original steel bracelet, completing its period look and appealing to collectors of vintage Omega Constellation models.
