Collection
The “Constellation” collection was launched in 1982 and this collection is notable for its beautiful design concepts. OMEGA Constellation is characterized by its famous “Griffes” or claws, and striking dials. The dynamic collection was completely re-designed in 2009, attracting a whole new generation of Constellation wearers. The current collection recalls the tradition while proclaiming originality, design excellence and technical innovation that would have been the envy of its ancestors.
