Ron Gordon Watch Repair Announces Post on the Constellation Perpetual Calendar

Explore the legacy of Omega's Constellation Perpetual Calendar with Ron Gordon Watch Repair. Discover why this 1990s gem still shines and how expert service in NYC can keep it ticking for decades.

NEW YORK, NY, January 31, 2026 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Ron Gordon Watch Repair, a top-rated Omega watch repair shop in Midtown Manhattan, is proud to announce a new blog post highlighting a 1990s classic from the Omega lineup: the Constellation Perpetual Calendar. As one of New York City's most trusted watch repair shops, Ron Gordon reflects on the quiet brilliance and long-term reliability of this underrated timepiece. It is one that still impresses decades later.

The post, titled "A '90s Gem Still Ticking Strong: The Omega Constellation Perpetual Calendar," kicks off 2026 with a nostalgic nod to Omega's boldest quartz engineering era. While newer models often grab the spotlight, the Constellation Perpetual Calendar proves that great design and smart mechanics never go out of style.

"This watch was ahead of its time," said Ron Gordon. "It wasn't just beautiful. It was built to think for itself. The styling was bold, smart, and unapologetically '90s. And that's what I love about it."

The timepiece features Omega's Quartz Caliber 1680, a thermocompensated movement derived from ETA Caliber 252.511, with eleven jewels and remarkable calendar functionality. The perpetual calendar is pre-programmed through the year 2099, automatically accounting for leap years and varying month lengths—without user intervention.Omega Watch Repair in NY NY

Ron also calls out several features that make this Omega model a standout even today. For example, holding the crown down reveals the current month and year using the date window. This is an unexpected but clever function. The independent hour-hand adjustment makes it a favorite among frequent travelers.

From a design perspective, the Constellation Perpetual Calendar follows Omega's '90s DNA. The 35.5mm case size might seem modest by today's standards, but on the wrist, the watch wears larger, thanks to its integrated bracelet and balanced proportions. The signature claws on the bezel, filled Roman numerals, and combination of brushed and polished steel give it a strong wrist presence. Ron also points to thoughtful details like the pusher-release clasp with an 18k gold Omega logo. This exists even on the all-steel versions.

While these watches may not be topping collector auctions, Ron sees them often in his New York repair shop. They are usually owned by longtime Omega fans or inherited as family heirlooms. Many are still running well thanks to Omega's high-quality quartz engineering. But as with any fine timepiece, a little service goes a long way.

"Battery replacements, case reseals, bracelet adjustments—these are simple services that can keep a Constellation running beautifully for years," Ron said. "If you've got one tucked away in a drawer, now's a good time to bring it in."
