OMEGA Expands on the Constellation With a Gents Collection

Swiss luxury watchmaker OMEGA is expanding on its Constellation series with an all-new Gents Collection, featuring a larger case size and streamlined detailing.

Measuring in at a more robust 41mm size, the new timepieces come in either stainless steel, 18K gold, or a two-tone combination of  both, paired immaculately with ceramic bezels carrying Roman numerals made from either OMEGA Ceragold or Liquidmetal. While many of the Constellation’s iconinc design traits have been maintained, such as the claw-like indices and half-moon facets at both ends of the case, the brand has also implement a range of innovative changes. The case edges are now bevelled for a sleeker look, reflected in the more slender hour and minute hands and indexes which were inspired by the Manhattan skyline.

Most of Gents Collection models will come complete with leather straps that carry an anti-bacterial rubber lining, secured to the watches via a single decorative metallic link on eithe rend of the case. For those preferring a more metallic look, you’ll also be able to swap in any bracelet from the Constellation 39mm collection. Finally, powering the timepieces themselves is the OMEGA Master Co-Axial Calibre 8900/8901, sitting neatly under a sapphire caseback.

For the interested, the new OMEGA Constellation 41mm Gents Collection will start at $5,850 USD for the steel bezel and case version, $6,500 USD for the steel case ceramic bezel variant, and $20,400 USD for the 18K gold models.

Elsewhere in watches, Audemars Piguet has released Code 11.59 models with smoked lacquered dials.
