Dimensions & Specifications

Bracelet perimeter

Fits a 17cm wrist or smaller

Case diameter

Q: What size is the watch, and will it fit my wrist?
A: The case diameter is 33 mm, and the bracelet currently fits a wrist measuring 17 cm or smaller. Compare these measurements with your wrist size and a watch you already wear before purchasing.

Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted?
A: A qualified watchmaker can assess whether links can be removed for a smaller fit. If your wrist is larger than 17 cm, contact us before purchasing, as a larger fit would require suitable additional links, which are not included.

Q: Has the watch been serviced or had a new battery fitted?
A: The product information does not specify a service date or battery replacement date. Its good internal condition rating does not establish either, so please contact us if you need confirmation before purchasing. Battery replacement should be carried out by an Omega authorised service centre.

Q: What year and reference is this Omega Constellation?
A: This watch is dated 1991 and has reference number 396.1070. Its country of origin is Switzerland.

Q: Why is this model called The Owl?
A: The nickname refers to the two day and date subdials, which resemble an owl’s eyes and give the dial its distinctive appearance.

Q: Is this watch quartz or automatic?
A: This Constellation reference uses a battery-powered quartz movement rather than an automatic movement, so it does not require regular winding.

Q: What size is the watch, and will it fit my wrist?
A: The case diameter is 33 mm, and the bracelet currently fits a wrist measuring 17 cm or smaller. Compare these measurements with your wrist size and a watch you already wear before purchasing.

Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted?
A: A qualified watchmaker can assess whether links can be removed for a smaller fit. If your wrist is larger than 17 cm, contact us before purchasing, as a larger fit would require suitable additional links, which are not included.

Q: What condition is this particular watch in?
A: The watch is rated Good Condition, with both its internal and external condition listed as good. There are scratches on the case and bracelet. Please review the product photographs for the visible signs of wear.

Q: Does it come with a box, papers or other accessories?
A: No accessories are included with this watch. The product information lists it as watch only, without a box or papers.

Q: Can I wear this vintage watch swimming or in the shower?
A: Its current water resistance has not been confirmed in the product information. Do not wear it swimming or in the shower unless an authorised service centre has tested it and confirmed its suitability. Ageing seals mean an original water-resistance rating should not be treated as a guarantee today.

Q: Has the watch been serviced or had a new battery fitted?
A: The product information does not specify a service date or battery replacement date. Its good internal condition rating does not establish either, so please contact us if you need confirmation before purchasing. Battery replacement should be carried out by an Omega authorised service centre.

Q: How should I care for this vintage Constellation?
A: Gently wipe the case and bracelet with a soft, dry cloth. Until its water resistance has been verified, avoid immersing or rinsing it. Keep it away from solvents, perfumes, strong magnetic fields, heavy knocks and extreme temperature changes.
