A Timepiece For The Ages

This reimagined classic women’s timepiece continues to take the world by storm.

The isle of Manhattan is arguably the jewel in New York’s crown, where fast-paced days become sophisticated nights. It’s a city that inspires, so it’s no surprise master timepiece maker OMEGA was inspired to create a signature timepiece in its honour, with the first Constellation Manhattan launching in 1982 and immediately establishing its place as one of the most iconic, coveted women’s watches in the world.

The Constellation Manhattan is elegant, luxurious and equally appropriate for day or night, casual or formal. It’s an everyday classic with heirloom status. Now, in 2019, the collection offers a reimagined selection of models that retain the iconic Manhattan Constellation spirit, with modernised design and technology.  

Master Chronometer

The signature piece in the new collection is the Master Chronometer – with each 29mm Constellation model carrying the OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 8700/8701, certified at the highest level of precision, performance and magnetic resistance.

Streamlined design 

The shape of the new indexes is inspired by the Manhattan skyline. From every angle, you can see the new streamlined refinements, from the slimmer look of the claws that merge gracefully into the bezel and case, to the more slender bezels with thinner Roman numerals.

Precious materials

A range of new dial colours has been added and OMEGA’s own 18K Sedna™ gold is used for the first time in the ladies’ Constellation collection, or choose stainless steel, with both models featuring a diamond-paved bezel, pearled mother-of-pearl dial with diamond hour markers and a date window at the 6 o’clock position. The hands, OMEGA logo, Constellation star and diamond holders feature 18K gold.

A timeless investment 

An Omega timepiece is an elegant piece that’s as comfortable as it is impressive. With several different designs to choose from in the new collection, there’s a size, dial colour and material to suit every individual preference and lifestyle.

Taking Shanghai by storm

Worn and loved by Omega ambassadors Cindy Crawford, Alessandra Ambrosio, Nicole Kidman and Liu Shishi, the new collection was recently launched at a special event in Shanghai. Hosted at the city’s dazzling Expo I–Pavilion the event marked a makeover for the iconic Constellation timepieces and brought these four inspirational women to the stage together for the very first time. The evening concluded with a musical performance by pianist Stephen Ridley and the revelation of the new Constellation advertising campaign shot by renowned photographer Damon Baker and featuring Cindy, Nicole, Alessandra and Liu together in one powerful and beautiful portrait.
