1956 Omega Constellation 2852 Arrowhead Crosshair – A Pie-Pan Classic with Character

This Omega Constellation Ref. 2852 from 1956 is a textbook example of mid-century chronometer design. Housed in a 35 mm 18k yellow gold case, it features the highly sought-after silver pie-pan dial with crosshair layout and striking arrowhead hour markers. Slight, even patina adds warmth and authenticity without compromising legibility.

Powered by the automatic chronometer-rated Caliber 505, this Constellation combines precision with elegant proportions and gently downturned lugs. A refined vintage dress watch that perfectly captures Omega’s golden era — timeless, balanced, and full of character.
