Over 560 Invisible Set Diamonds Sparkle in New Omega Constellation Watch
World famous watch maker Omega, from Switzerland, has unveiled a stunning new time piece, said to be the most over the top it has released in its Constellation series. With more than 30 carats worth of diamonds, cut in the baguette and trapeze styles and then set on both the case and 18k white gold bracelet, this unique piece has been dazzling watch fans eager for a heavy dose of luxury. The watch, titled the Constellation Baguette, features a full selection of four hundred and fifty nine diamonds each delicately matched to suit the ones nearest to it in a hugely time consuming process known as invisible setting. The style of the setting was chosen because it camouflages the pins and joints which hold the gems in place and gives the appearance of a seamless flow of diamonds across the length of the watch. With a mother of pearl dial and so many diamonds that it gives the visual impression of a cosmic supernova, the Omega Constellation’s star symbol is featured to full effect.
Due to the total and complete uniqueness of this watch, Omega will not carry any replacement diamonds or other standard replacement parts. This is because in the event that a replacement to one of the jewels should ever need to take place, the process of repair would take a considerable amount of time due to the need for a certified Gemologist to carefully evaluate each stone in order to find the proper replacement. The color, cut, clarity and size of any replacement would need to be just as perfect as the original item.
