OmegaConstellation 22mm 2010 Gold Watch

Q: What are the key details of this watch?
A: This piece is a petite Omega dress watch with an official 22.5 mm case size, an 18k gold case and bracelet, a diamond-set bezel, diamond hour markers, sapphire crystal, a deployment clasp and a Swiss quartz movement. It is ideal if you want a refined, jewellery-like watch with precious-metal presence.

Q: How does the 22 mm size wear on the wrist?
A: It wears as a small and elegant ladies' watch rather than a larger modern statement style. The bracelet perimeter on this specific piece is 17 cm, so the best way to judge fit is to compare that measurement with your own wrist size.

Q: Is this watch quartz or automatic?
A: This reference uses an Omega quartz movement rather than an automatic one. That means it is battery-powered, easy to wear day to day and valued for dependable timekeeping with minimal winding or setup.

Q: How often will the battery need replacing?
A: Official Omega product information for this calibre lists an approximate battery life of 32 months. In practice, battery life can vary depending on age, storage and usage, so a pre-owned watch should always be checked and serviced by a qualified watchmaker when needed.

Q: Is it suitable for swimming or showering?
A: This reference is rated to 3 bar, or 30 metres, which is generally best treated as splash-resistant only. For a second-hand watch, we would not recommend swimming, bathing or showering with it unless it has been pressure-tested very recently.

Q: What product information are included with this watch?
A: This watch comes with a warranty card and certificate. If any additional item is not listed under the product information on this page, it should not be assumed to be included.

Q: What is the condition of this particular watch?
A: It is listed in Very Good condition. The case and bracelet show light scratches, and the hardware remains shiny with light wear consistent with careful use.

Q: Can the bracelet be resized?
A: In most cases, yes. Bracelet links can usually be adjusted by a professional watchmaker, although integrated Omega bracelets can be a little more involved than standard strap watches. This example currently measures 17 cm around, so any extra-link or final fit questions are best confirmed before purchase.

Q: How do you authenticate a pre-owned Omega watch like this?
A: A pre-owned Omega should be assessed through its reference number, serial number, movement, dial details, case construction, clasp, finishing and accompanying product information. At A Retro Tale, each piece is checked for authenticity before it is offered for sale.
