Mid-Century Precision in Rose Gold

Few vintage dress watches capture 1950s elegance quite like this Omega Constellation — a chronometer-certified icon blending mechanical prestige with timeless design.

Cased in 18k rose gold and fitted with a richly patinated pie-pan dial, this 1954 reference 2852 features sharply faceted arrowhead hour markers and center seconds — subtle details that made the Constellation Omega’s answer to the Rolex Datejust when it launched in 1952.

Powered by the chronometer-grade Caliber 501 and housed in a case by famed maker Antoine Gerlach SA, this example remains beautifully preserved. The dial has aged to a warm orange hue, adding a layer of vintage charm to its original rose tones.
