The claw is not operative and the model I believe is from 1986.

Thank you so much for your reply. I ...Dear Desmond,<br />Thank you so much for your reply. I have seen some Constellation roman numeralled bezels that look obviously stainless steel in that brushed steely gray look. This roman numeralled bezel has the sheen and whiteness of white gold. Could it be rhodium plated? If you have a public email I would like to send you a photo?<br />Many thanks, Peter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30329246.post-86717980447062562972016-09-09T10:31:17.250+08:002016-09-09T10:31:17.250+08:00Hi Peter,

Earlier stainless steel Constellations with white gold hands and markers certainly did have a white gold bezel, however I do not think the Roman numeralled Manhattan bezel is white gold, rather stainless steel. <br /><br />Regards<br /><br />DesmondDesmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14148245572518221306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30329246.post-61792857238681156152016-09-08T23:27:34.215+08:002016-09-08T23:27:34.215+08:00Dear Desmond, I am looking to buy a used Omega Con...Dear Desmond, I am looking to buy a used Omega Constellation men's automatic circa 1990s. The seller says the bezel with Roman numerals is white gold. Did Omega ever make the Constellation of this era in white gold bezel or could it be silver? I appreciate your thoughts.
