Omega Chronometer Constellation, Pie-pan Dial, 1970 (168.005)
This is a stunning version of one of the most popular vintage Omega's on the market and has recently been serviced. The "Pie-Pan" dial is a defining feature of this era's Constellation models and a key reason for their popularity among collectors and enthusiasts. Named for its resemblance to an inverted pie dish, the dial features a subtly faceted, multi-level design that creates depth and texture. This unique layout enhances legibility by distinguishing the raised hour markers and hands against the recessed edges. The pie-pan design not only adds an architectural quality to the dial but also elevates its aesthetic sophistication, setting it apart from flat dials of the era.
