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.

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.
