Q: What is the Omega Lady‑Constellation 22.5mm Ref. 1562.65 (1995)? A: It is a vintage ladies’ Constellation from 1995 featuring a petite 22.5mm stainless‑steel case and integrated bracelet, a fixed bezel with engraved Roman numerals, and a salmon/champagne‑toned dial set with diamond hour markers. Swiss‑made and elegantly sized for dress wear.
Q: Is this watch quartz or automatic? A: This model is powered by a Swiss quartz movement for precise, low‑maintenance timekeeping. It does not require winding and typically needs a battery change every 2–3 years under normal use.
Q: Does this watch have a date display? A: No. This specific configuration is time‑only, keeping the dial clean with diamond hour markers and no date window.
Q: What type of crystal does it use? A: The Constellation from this era is fitted with a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal for excellent clarity and durability compared with acrylic glass.
Q: Is it water‑resistant? A: When new, comparable Constellation models of this size were rated to 30 metres. As this piece dates to 1995, water resistance cannot be guaranteed without a current pressure test. Please treat it as splash‑resistant only and avoid swimming or showering.
Q: Are the diamond hour markers original to this reference? A: Yes. Omega offered factory diamond‑set dials on ladies’ Constellation models of this period, and this example has been inspected and authenticated by our specialists.
Q: Will the bracelet fit my wrist and can it be adjusted? A: This watch currently fits a wrist circumference of up to 16cm. The integrated bracelet can be sized down by removing links. To size up, additional links may need to be sourced separately.
Q: What is the condition of this specific watch? A: Overall Very Good. It shows light traces of wear consistent with age, with surface scratches on the stainless‑steel case and bracelet. Please review the listing photos for the most accurate impression.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: The watch is delivered with a certificate (blank). It does not include the original box. Your purchase is backed by A Retro Tale’s 100% authenticity guarantee, insured shipping, a 12‑month movement warranty, and a 14‑day return policy.
Q: How do I set the time and care for the watch? A: Gently pull the crown to the setting position, rotate to set the hands, then push the crown back in to start the movement. Avoid operating the crown near water and ensure it is fully pressed in afterwards. For care, wipe the watch with a soft, dry cloth, avoid strong magnets and solvents, and have the battery and gaskets checked every 2–3 years.
