    Best Omega Connie review out there. Recently picked up a 38mm one with the 8500 movement ( two barrel design) for about $4K brand new with pale blue diamond pattern dial. Simply awesome. So underrated.

    Still criminally underrated in end of 2022. Picked up a older generation co-axial Constellation on auction for only 870 euro. Its a full kit and not even in bad condition!!! Will give it a full movement overhaul as soon as it arrives.

    I think the Constellation is a gorgeous watch, my dream watch since the first time I saw it when I was a teenager, so happy I got it a few years back. I think it's a watch for a gentleman with a refined taste who doesn't cater to the hype or opinion of others.

    First off, I really like the video intro. Great choice of music. Overall, the entire production is well done. As far as the watch, I really like the looks of the solid steel Constellation. I just wish I could afford it. My personal favorite era of the Constellation is the 1980's and 1990's version. My favorite Omega thus far.

    TGV! A year ago, I discovered your channel and was immediately hooked by your enthusiasm for the history and tradition of horology. I fell in love with the subject and it's been a fascinating and rewarding hobby since then. Early on, I bought my first mechanical watch, (A Timex Marlin). This week, I got my first automatic, (at Hamilton Khaki Field Automatic) and next on my list is a classic Omega. A Constellation like the older models featured in this video seem to be a perfect candidate for what I am looking for. While I am leaning more toward a Geneve, I'll be keeping an eye out for one of these when I've saved enough to get one! Thanks for your always educational and uplifting videos.

    They’re much better than I was expecting. And I agree with you, in that the engraved bezel version is the nicer of the two. Still, if I were in the market for something like this, I’d go for the Globemaster. It’s one of my top three contemporary Omegas.

    Nice review and cool graphics and music on the intro. I just added the Constellation 41 (in steel with the blue face) to my collection and I absolutely love it -it's my 3rd Omega. Your review (and almost every other) fails to note an intriguing design feature in the 41mm; one that was the clincher for my purchase: the radiance on the face always orignates from the gold star above the date window (i.e the Sun in the constellation), rather than from the (typical) center of the face as in the 39mm. This is a huge design distinction, which creates a beatiful, dynamic and dazzeling effect - I can't stop staring at it! I dont't think video of the ceremic bezel does it any justice - the blue ceramic bezel with the liquid metal Roman numerals is gorgeous, vrtually scratchproof and changes shades of blue depending on the lighting. Also, on the face, the indices are faceted and really catch the light and almost "sparkle", giving the watch even more visual dynamics. Lastly a nice detail with the clasp - its designed so the excess strap feeds in and tucks in beneath the clasp and against your wrist, so is very comforatable and there is no extra keeper needed and a clean design. Yes I would like a little more lume as well, but I have no issue with orientation of the dial in the dark since its on my wrist. I do also love the fact that you don't see these watches everywhere, unlike some other popular brand (beginning with R)! Thanks again.

    The Constellation is a stunning set of Omega designs. Whilst not to everyone's taste I have to say the quartz crisis rectangular quartz ones really appeal to me! It's the 70s/80s futuristic vibe. The new ones are stunning. As always great knowledge and pristine delivery, your videos are always most welcome 👍

    I have a light blue triangle pattern 38mm Connie. It’s one with the 8500 caliber with double barrel system. The 41mm I liked a bit more from size perspective had the 8800 Single barrel caliber while Metas certified. It also loses the jumping hour ability, so that’s something to keep in mind with the 8800 series Caliber, which is an upgrade for 2500 caliber actually for their entry level watches.

    As an owner of a 1956 cal. 505 and 1968 cal. 564 myself, I can attest to them both keeping incredibly accurate time. I fell in love with the pie-pan dial and much prefer the original aesthetic of the 50’s and 60’s offerings over the subsequent design iterations. Those truly were the glory years.

      Agreed. The claws and the flat face doesn’t do it for me like the 50’s and 60’s. I have a 1962 constellation from my grandfather, and it is my favourite for sure.

    Thanks TGV for another great video. The 39mm with the engraved dial is slightly more subdued and elegant. The 41 with the ceramic bezel is a touch sportier. Both are beautifully done and frankly, very dependent on mood. Hard to tell from video but the finishing on them appears exquisite.

    Well done. I am a big fan of the Constellation. I have a few from the 1960's and a new Globemaster. The Globemaster as part of the Constellation line is one heck of a watch sharing the same caliber 8900, and as accurately summarized by you highly underrated.. Not to start a pissing contest but in my mind it goes toe to toe with the Datejust.

  • @williamthompson7656
    @williamthompson7656 3 года назад

    I had a Constellation for a short while. I bought it online from an established and reputable dealer that advertised it as a 35mm watch. Unfortunately, that measurement included the crown, so it was more like a 32mm. I wore it for a while, but it was just too small, so I sold it on and bought a Longines tank-style watch. That one, I LOVE!!!

      2 very classy choices and I hate it when that happens, it happened to me once with a watch I bought on ebay.

    Super intro! Terrific insight of the history TGV as well as great presentation. While I really like the new Constellation with my preference leaning towards the ceramic bezel I prefer my blue dial Globemaster Pie Pan master chronometer on the dark blue band as the my all round watch. Once this COVID lock down eases It would be good to see the new models in the the real world.

    Well, I’ve never under-rated it: the design has always resonated with me. That said, I have two Speedmasters, one Seamaster and no Constellations. I do love this new one, though. Certainly the best since the early, now-vintage ones.
