Omega is a Swiss watch manufacturing brand with a history of more than 170 years. The four major series of Constellation watches, Seamaster, Speedmaster and De Ville are very famous, but gradually some illegal fakes have entered the market. Many consumers don’t know how to judge the authenticity of Omega Constellation series watches. In fact, don’t worry, you can refer to Omega Constellation Authenticity Fake identification method to identify your watch.

How to tell whether the Omega constellation is true or false?

1. Looking at the appearance of the watch means distinguishing between authenticity and fakeness. The first step is to carefully observe the symbols on the dial, back cover and handle of the watch to determine whether the symbols are highly different. If the symbols appear different, it is most likely a counterfeit product.

2. The logo is clear and the texture is fine. The omega symbol on the dial image of the real 'Omega' watch is an "Ω" letter, while the "Ω" letter on the fake "Omega watch" is more confusing. The original watch has a row of very small letters and numbers at the very edge just below the surface, but the fake watch does not. The lower row of letters on the dial image of the genuine watch is omega. On the other hand, except for the trademark on the bottom cover, the empty space is smooth. The counterfeit "Omega" is full of pits, has no alphabetical symbols, and is extremely rough.

3. Look at the watch function. The genuine watch has complete functions. The adjustment knob of the watch can be pulled out in two ways. The first one is for adjusting the date, and the second one is for adjusting the hour hand. The fake watch can only be pulled out once. The button above the watch hand knob is used to adjust the day of the week. The fake watch is for adjusting the date, or it may only have a decorative effect. The real watch has a white dial, clear text, and long luminous retention time, while the fake watch has a yellowish dial, low-quality text, and short luminous retention time.

4. Look at the production serial number of the watch case. Almost all Omega watches have production serial numbers, and they are unique to each watch. It is usually engraved on the back cover of the watch, perhaps on the back of a claw of the watch, and is an 8-digit number. If it is a mechanical watch, the 8-digit production serial number will also appear on the edge of the movement plywood. The production serial number of the case and the movement are the same. If they are different, it is a fake watch.

5. Look at the logo on the watch case, especially the K gold watch. There are many logos on the case, such as the image of a scale, the symbol of 18K or 750, the dog head of St. Bernard or the "Goddess of Protection of the Country". "Female head symbol, these symbols are stamped very small and clear, while fake watches are usually thick and blurry.

How to identify the authenticity of the Omega Constellation:

1. Look at the production serial number on the bottom of the watch:

Each Omega watch has a unique "ID card" " number, which is the production serial number of the watch case. It is usually engraved on the back cover of the watch, or on the back of a claw of the watch. It is an 8-digit number. If it is a mechanical watch, the 8-digit production serial number will also appear on the edge of the movement splint. The production serial number of the case is consistent with that of the movement. The production serial number of a real watch is engraved, very deep and clear. If it is engraved on the back cover of the watch, it will be consistent with the arc on the back cover of the watch. That is to say, the numbers will also be arranged in an arc shape, and Fake watches are generally arranged horizontally.

2. Look at the logo on the strap:

The real watch will have some logos and the serial number of the strap engraved on the discount of the strap. It is very delicate and compact, and the counterfeit watch has The logo workmanship is generally rough and very cheap.

3. Look at the hands of the watch:

The hands of the Omega watch are very delicate and unique, which cannot be imitated by fake watches. The surface of the hands of the real watch is made of electroplated material. The gloss is very good, the fingers are exquisite and textured, the color on the needle is consistent with the color on the dial, it looks very high-end when worn, and the workmanship of a copycat watch cannot be imitated no matter what.

4. Look at the watch dial:

The characters on the dial and the characters on the lacquer-printed dial should also be very regular and have a bright surface. If it is a diamond, first of all, it is a natural diamond; Fake watches usually use "rhinestones" and they are larger than the real ones. The lacquer prints on the dial, including the letters and lanes, should be very clear and shiny. Fake watches should be darker and blurry.

The words SWISS MADE should be at the bottom at 6 o'clock on the dial, close to the aperture of the glass. On fake watches, the letters are printed higher up.

5. Characters and lacquer seals on the dial:

For men who love watches, I believe everyone knows that Omega’s dial is very classic. The real characters on the dial should be It is very regular and has a shiny surface. The diamond characters on the dial are sparkling natural diamonds. They are small and exquisite inlaid on the dial. The counterfeit dial uses cheap "rhinestones". The gloss is not as shiny as diamonds, and the texture is also very good. Cheap, the lacquer prints, letters, and lanes on the real dial are all very clear, while the fake ones are dim and blurry, and the workmanship is rough
