Key Product Information:
The Omega Constellation F300Hz Ref. 198.004 is a striking vintage timepiece from the early 1970s, showcasing a bold blue dial and advanced tuning fork movement. Housed in a 39mm stainless steel D-shaped case, the watch features a smooth bezel, fluted crown, and integrated Omega stainless steel bracelet (Ref. 1164/166) with folding clasp. The vivid blue dial is accented with applied baton hour markers and baton hands, both featuring aged luminescent detailing. A vivid red central seconds hand provides a distinctive contrast and a dynamic pop of colour. A date aperture at 3 o'clock adds everyday functionality. Powered by the Omega Calibre 1250 – a 12-jewel electronic tuning fork movement – it delivers smooth, precise operation and is known for its characteristic humming vibration.
Key Brand Information:
Founded in 1848, Omega is one of Switzerland’s most prestigious watchmakers, celebrated for its dedication to innovation, design, and precision. The Constellation line, introduced in 1952, is a symbol of Omega's commitment to excellence, consistently featuring chronometer-certified movements. During the early 1970s, Omega embraced electronic technology, and the F300Hz series reflected this shift, offering advanced tuning fork movements that bridged the gap between traditional mechanical and emerging quartz technologies. The Ref. 198.004 with blue dial is a rare and refined example from this pioneering era.
