Omega Constellation 168.004 Rose “Beads of Rice”, 1964 - Pie Pan Classic with Onyx Details
A refined chronometer from Omega’s golden era — rich in precision, proportion, and poise. This Omega Constellation Ref. 168.004, produced in 1964, exemplifies the timeless sophistication that made the Constellation line one of Omega’s defining achievements.
The 35.5 mm rose gold plated case displays sharp geometry and elegant contours, balanced by the signature pie pan dial in silver sunburst finish — an unmistakable hallmark of early Constellations. Slim baton indices with onyx inlay and faceted dauphine hands complete the picture, capturing the mid-century ideal of refined understatement.
Powered by the chronometer-certified Caliber 561 automatic, this watch combines reliability with quiet luxury. And the true cherry on top: a rare, matching rose gold plated “Beads of Rice” bracelet, completing the piece with quintessential Omega grace.

Omega
Few watchmakers have a résumé as storied — or as proudly worn — as Omega. Since 1848, the maison has been at the center of history, science, sport, and style. From lunar landings to Olympic games, from deep-sea dives to Bond films, Omega watches have accompanied the bold and the brilliant every step of the way.
But beyond the headlines lies something more intimate: a legacy of precision, purpose, and unmistakable design that makes Omega vintage watches some of the most collectible and meaningful timepieces ever made.
For collectors, few moments are as defining as 1969 — when the Speedmaster became the first watch worn on the Moon. But long before that, Omega was pushing boundaries: anti-magnetic cases in the 1950s Railmaster, the revolutionary dive-ready Seamaster 300, the effortlessly elegant Constellation, and the space-age Dynamic. Each one tells a story — of innovation, of function, of fearless design.
Omega vintage watches are where tool-watch utility meets mid-century beauty. Clean dials. Twisted lugs. Pie-pan textures. Lume-aged hands that glow with nostalgia. They’re not just instruments — they’re artifacts of a century in motion.
To wear an Omega is to wear a piece of collective memory. It’s for the collector who values performance, but also emotion. Someone who connects with history not just through words, but through the tick of a movement that once timed a mission, lit up a ballroom, or accompanied a dive into the unknown.
Omega doesn’t need embellishment. It’s trusted. Proven. Loved.
Because true greatness doesn’t announce itself — it leaves a legacy. And when that legacy is preserved in a finely aged case, beating with life decades later, it becomes something more:
A vintage watch that reminds you of where we’ve been — and dares you to keep going.
