At the heart of this Omega Constellation C-Shape is Omega’s celebrated caliber 564, part of the revered 500-series automatic movements. Known for its reliability, precision, and smooth operation, the Cal. 564 features a quick-set date mechanism, a highly practical feature for its time. As a certified chronometer, this movement reflects Omega’s relentless pursuit of accuracy, ensuring it meets the highest standards of Swiss timekeeping excellence.
The Dial
The white dial of this Constellation exudes understated elegance, with its minimalist design and clean layout. Subtle applied baton hour markers and sleek, faceted dauphine hands provide excellent legibility while enhancing the refined aesthetic. The date window at 3 o’clock adds a practical touch without compromising the symmetry of the design. The “Constellation” name and the signature star emblem at 6 o’clock underscore the watch’s esteemed heritage within Omega’s most prestigious collection.
The Case and Bracelet
The 34mm stainless steel case is a defining feature of the C-Shape design, named for its bold, cushion-like contours. Designed by Gerald Genta, this case is as functional as it is stylish, offering a robust construction that remains comfortable on the wrist. The integrated “brick” bracelet—a signature feature of this reference—completes the watch’s cohesive look, combining durability with a touch of luxury. The case back features the iconic Constellation Observatory medallion, a nod to Omega’s history of precision chronometry and its commitment to excellence.
