I would like to know the price range and availability of the mint condition constellations with enamel dial, Grande luxe, or any sold gold constellations with original gold bracelet.

You can always use the advanced search feature on the classicwatch.com site to look for solid gold Constellations. Give it a try!

I think you'll find that 14K and 18K Constellations are relatively easy to find. Enamel (and solid gold) dial are more difficult and the Grande Luxe model is particularly hard to find. The last one I saw change hands sold for $7,500. Solid gold Omega bracelets are also fairly difficult to find, much harder than the gold-filled varieties. And be careful with that word "mint". Anyone who claims to have a 40-50 year old watch in "mint" condition is not being accurate in their descriptions.

Hello,
I have an Omega Constellation Automatic Chronometer that was once my dad's. I believe it was purchased in the late fifties or early sixties? It has a proof stamp on the side where the strap attaches but I can't make it out. The watch works fine and I need to find it's approximate value. Picture attached.
Thank You,
Mike

Omega Constellation

I don't think the bracelet is original to the watch. Is the head all gold or gold w/steel back?

Hi Zaf,

The bracelet was added much later by me. The watch appears to be gold with a stainless back.
