Omega Constellation 18ct Solid Gold And SS Ref. 795.1202

Omega Constellation 1998 — First impression - 795.1202

This Omega Constellation from 1998 is a distilled expression of late-20th-century Swiss luxury: precise quartz engineering housed in a distinctly architectural design that is instantly recognizable on the wrist. Reference 795.1202 pairs stainless steel with 18ct solid gold accents, delivering the warm two-tone presence collectors associate with the Constellation “Manhattan” era. The dial is finely textured in white color, contrasted by applied gold markers and crisp printing, while the Roman-numeral bezel and signature “claws” define the silhouette from across the room. At 25 mm, the proportions are elegantly compact, and with a full-length bracelet of 23 links, it remains practical for a wide range of wrist sizes. Offered in amazing condition and fully operational, this is a refined vintage Omega for everyday precision timekeeping.

Omega Constellation - Textured white Dial

The dial shows a white tone with a fine, even texture that adds depth without distracting from legibility. The Omega signature and symbol sit prominently, while the “Constellation” script provides the collection’s hallmark identity. A gold star above 6 o’clock is a classic Constellation emblem, lending a subtle sense of heritage and continuity. Applied gold baton indices catch light cleanly against the textured background, and the minute track is neatly printed for accurate reading. The overall presentation is disciplined and luxurious, designed to look equally appropriate with formal wear or as a daily timepiece.

Constellation 795.1202 - Gold dauphine Hands

Gold dauphine-style hands reinforce the watch’s dress character, delivering sharp, faceted geometry that complements the Manhattan case architecture. The two-hand layout keeps the dial calm and uncluttered, emphasizing elegance over motion and aligning perfectly with a quartz movement’s precision-driven role. The proportions are well judged: the hands reach naturally toward their respective tracks, making the watch easy to read at a glance. The result is a clean, collectible aesthetic—quietly confident rather than flashy—backed by the reliability of Swiss quartz engineering.

Omega Constellation 1998 — Manhattan claws and two-tone 18ct gold & steel case - 795.1202

The case design is unmistakably Constellation “Manhattan,” defined by the four signature claws that anchor the bezel and create the model’s distinctive side profile. Here, the construction combines stainless steel with 18ct solid gold elements, producing a two-tone contrast that feels purposeful rather than decorative. Brushed steel surfaces give the watch a contemporary, wearable character, while the gold bezel adds warmth and visual hierarchy around the dial. Roman numerals are engraved around the bezel, reinforcing the dress identity and providing a classic framing element that Omega collectors immediately recognize. The case is compact at 25 mm, yet the integrated design and crisp finishing give it strong presence for its size.

Constellation 795.1202 - Fluted gold Crown

The crown is finished in gold with fine fluting, sized for secure handling while preserving the case’s clean integrated lines. As with the rest of the watch, the crown design is functional and refined, matching the two-tone aesthetic and maintaining the Constellation’s cohesive appearance from every angle. The tactile experience is characteristic of a premium Swiss timepiece: precise setting action, stable feel, and a component that looks correct within the Manhattan design language. For collectors, these consistent finishing cues matter, especially on late-1990s Omega pieces where originality and condition are central to desirability.

Omega Constellation Two-tone Bracelet

The watch is fitted with its original integrated two-tone bracelet, combining brushed steel links with gold accents that mirror the bezel. This bracelet style is a key part of the Constellation’s identity—more jewelry-like than a traditional strap, yet engineered with Omega’s emphasis on fit and longevity. The clasp bears the Omega symbol, and the bracelet is noted as full length with 23 links, an important practical advantage for sizing flexibility. On-wrist, the bracelet helps the watch sit securely and comfortably, giving the piece a cohesive, luxurious presence that defines the Constellation as both a historic wristwatch and a refined daily companion.

Cal. 1456 quartz precision and Swiss-made practicality

At the heart of this Constellation is Omega Caliber 1456, a quartz movement chosen for dependable accuracy and low-maintenance ownership. Quartz in this context is not a compromise—it is a deliberate expression of precision timekeeping, particularly fitting for a watch intended to be worn regularly with minimal fuss. The two-hand layout complements the movement’s stable, clean performance and enhances the dress profile of the dial. As Swiss-made engineering from Omega, Cal. 1456 is designed for long-term serviceability, and this example is fully serviced and fully operational, making it immediately ready for everyday wear. For collectors, a properly prepared quartz Constellation can be one of the most satisfying vintage acquisitions: elegant, reliable, and genuinely useful in modern life.

Omega Constellation 1998 — Heritage of the Constellation in the Manhattan era

The Constellation line carries one of Omega’s most important luxury identities, and the Manhattan design language became a defining signature—recognized by the clawed bezel and integrated bracelet architecture. By the late 1990s, that identity matured into a refined, wearable format that combined precious metal accents with robust steel construction. This reference embodies that balance: the Roman-numeral gold bezel offers classic symbolism, while the brushed steel surfaces keep the watch contemporary and versatile. The textured white dial, gold furniture, and star emblem connect the watch to Constellation heritage in a subtle, collectible way. For enthusiasts of Omega design history, this is a representative late-20th-century piece—an iconic women’s dress watch with unmistakable brand DNA.
