This is an authentic vintage Omega advertisement from approximately 1984, spotlighting the now-iconic Omega Constellation “Manhattan” in a striking full gold edition. This piece celebrates Omega’s innovation in case design particularly the signature four claws (or “griffes”) introduced that year, which revolutionized the look and function of luxury watches.
“Doesn’t the watch with the claws deserve to be all in gold?”
A bold rhetorical nod to the unique, now-legendary design of the Omega Constellation.
