Omega Watches

  Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 8 "Dark Side of the Moon" The Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Apollo 8 "Dark Side of the Moon" is a modern tribute to the historic Apollo 8 mission of December 1968 , the first crewed spacecraft to orbit the Moon. Astronauts Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders became the first humans to see the Moon's far side—the "dark side"—and the first humans to witness Earth rising above the lunar horizon. Omega created this special Speedmaster to honor that groundbreaking mission and its role in paving the way for the Apollo 11 Moon landing. The watch features a 44.25 mm black ceramic case and a highly distinctive skeletonized dial that reveals a specially decorated version of Omega's manual-winding chronograph movement. The movement is laser-ablated to resemble the Moon's surface, with the dial side representing the Moon's near side and the caseback showing the cratered far side. Powered by the Co-Axial...

  The Omega Constellation Pie Pan Vintage Automatic Solid Gold reference 2652 originates from the early 1950s, during the formative years of Omega’s prestigious Constellation line, which had been launched in 1952 as the brand’s flagship chronometer-certified dress watch collection. The ref. 2652 was powered by Omega’s highly regarded automatic bumper movements, often the Caliber 354 or related chronometer-grade variants, known for their durability and precision. Its nickname, “Pie Pan,” comes from the distinctive faceted dial whose sloped edges resemble an inverted pie tin, a design that would become one of the most recognizable features of vintage Constellations. Crafted in solid gold, the watch reflected postwar luxury and Omega’s desire to compete with the finest Swiss dress watches of the era. With elegant dauphine hands, applied hour markers, and the observatory medallion on the caseback symbolizing Omega’s chronometric achievements, the Constellation 2652 remains one of the m...

  Omega Constellation Grand Luxe (1950s) The top-tier Constellation — Omega’s most luxurious production watch of its era. Background Introduced in the early-to-mid 1950s , the Grand Luxe was the flagship version of the Omega Constellation line. While the regular Constellation was already a chronometer-certified luxury dress watch, the Grand Luxe went far beyond: ✔ Premium gold cases ✔ Solid gold dials ✔ Hand-finished “brick link” bracelets ✔ Highest-grade movements ✔ Often delivered in special presentation boxes This was Omega’s answer to Patek Philippe’s Calatrava-level luxury at the time. Key Features 1. Case Materials 18K Yellow Gold 18K Rose (Pink) Gold Rare: 18K White Gold A few references were also made in platinum (extremely rare).

 A 1952 Omega pocket watch with welded lugs would actually be a bit unusual, since most conversion-style watches were done with older pocket watch movements from the 1910s–1930s , not the 1950s. Let me break this down: Conversion Style: Watchmakers (and sometimes owners) took a small pocket watch, often 30–40mm in diameter, and added wire lugs (soldered or welded onto the case) so it could be worn with a strap. These conversions were especially common in Europe during WWI and shortly after, before purpose-built wristwatches became mainstream. Omega Pocket Watch Movements: Omega’s Cal. 38.5L T1/T2 and similar calibers were commonly used in early wristwatches. In the 1950s, Omega was producing more refined wristwatches (Seamaster, Constellation, etc.), so a 1952-dated pocket watch with welded lugs is most likely a later conversion done by a watchmaker or collector — not something Omega would have produced at the factory. Collectibility: These conversio...
