An elegant choice for evening receptions, cocktail parties or a romantic dinner, this 1998 Omega Lady-Constellation lends refined sparkle with its mother-of-pearl dial and diamond accents. The petite 22.5mm stainless-steel, Swiss-made vintage design transitions effortlessly from office to after-hours.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this Omega Constellation 22.5 mm quartz or automatic? A: It is a quartz model powered by Omega calibre 1456, a precise two‑hand movement. Typical battery life is around 2.5–3 years with normal use.
Q: Which battery does it use? A: It uses a 1.55 V low‑drain cell corresponding to Omega battery ref. 1449934; common equivalents include SR616SW or 321. We recommend professional replacement and a water‑resistance check at the same time.
Q: What are the dimensions and how will it fit? A: The case measures 22.5 mm. This particular piece is currently sized to approximately a 17 cm wrist circumference. The integrated steel bracelet can be adjusted by adding or removing links; extra links may be sourced via authorised service centres or reputable specialists.
Q: Is it water‑resistant—can I shower or swim with it? A: When new, late‑1990s Constellation “My Choice” models of this size were rated to 30 metres. As a 1998 vintage watch, water resistance cannot be guaranteed; we advise against swimming, showering or submerging it unless it has passed a recent pressure test—and even then, only light splashes are recommended.
Q: What type of glass does it have? A: It is fitted with a domed, scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal with anti‑reflective treatment on the inside.
Q: Are the diamonds factory‑set and real? A: Reference 1566.76.00 was catalogued by Omega with diamond accents and gem‑set hour markers. Omega states it uses high‑quality Top Wesselton white diamonds in its timepieces. As with all items at A Retro Tale, this watch has been carefully authenticated by our specialists.
Q: What does the serial number tell me about the year? A: Serial number 59351613 falls within Omega’s late‑1990s sequence and corresponds to around 1998, which aligns with the model’s international collection date.
Q: Can I fit a leather strap instead of the bracelet? A: This model uses an integrated stainless‑steel bracelet, so conventional straight‑end straps will not fit directly. Most owners wear it on its bracelet; any strap conversion would require a specialist solution.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: This item is sold without accessories (no box or cards). Everything included is listed under the Accessories section; if it is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us for confirmation.
Q: Any care tips for a mother‑of‑pearl dial vintage watch? A: Avoid knocks, magnetic fields and prolonged exposure to moisture, perfumes or extreme heat. Wipe the bracelet gently with a soft, dry cloth. Replace the battery promptly when low to prevent leakage, and have gaskets inspected during service.
