The 35mm case of the Omega Constellation 198.003 is classic in its proportions, reflecting a more traditional design language that draws comparisons to Patek Philippe's Calatrava style. The simple, rounded case with thin, polished lugs and a smooth, flat bezel offers a refined and understated elegance. This case shape was a departure from the bold, angular designs seen in Omega’s other models of the era, such as the “C-shaped” Constellations. Instead, the 198.003 leans into a more timeless aesthetic, emphasizing balance and simplicity. The modest case size, by today’s standards, gives the watch a vintage charm, making it well-suited for those who appreciate smaller, more discreet wristwatches.
The dial is equally restrained yet impeccably finished. The wonderful blue catches light beautifully, giving the watch a subtle radiance. Applied baton hour markers, faceted to reflect light from different angles, create a sense of depth, while the slim, straight hands offer excellent legibility. At 3 o’clock, a date window adds functionality without overwhelming the minimalist design. Unlike later models with additional complications, the 198.003 keeps things simple with only a date function, further enhancing its clean, uncluttered aesthetic.
In summary, the Omega Constellation Chronometer Electronic F300Hz 198.003 from 1973 is a noteworthy timepiece that captures a transitional period in watchmaking history. Its blend of traditional Swiss watchmaking craftsmanship, coupled with early electronic innovation, makes it a distinctive piece. The modest 35mm case size, refined design, and high-frequency tuning fork movement make it a must-have for any collector seeking a vintage watch that tells both the time and a story.
