Omega Constellation | Pie Pan Crosshair Dog Leg | Ref. 168.005 | Calibre 561 | Circa 1962

A Mid-Century Icon of Precision and Prestige

This Omega Constellation from circa 1962 stands as one of the most refined executions of the classic “Pie Pan” design. Encased in solid 18k yellow gold with elegant dog leg lugs, it exemplifies the peak of Omega’s design and mechanical engineering in the golden era of Swiss horology. Reference 168.005, housing the celebrated chronometer-rated calibre 561, offers not just technical performance but the kind of aesthetic warmth that only five decades of quiet aging can bestow.

18k Gold Geometry and Gentle Aging

The 34mm case, forged in 18k yellow gold, retains its sharply faceted dog leg lugs—hallmarks of the mid-century Constellation line. These lugs create a bold architectural frame, tempering the classically sized case with a confident presence on the wrist. The original 10-sided Omega-signed crown fits seamlessly into the case flank, preserving the symmetry and profile of the watch as originally intended.

A polished bezel, tight chamfers, and lightly aged edges speak to the watch’s well-preserved condition. This is not a museum piece locked away—it is a working heirloom.

The Crosshair Pie Pan: A Dial of Depth and Detail

At the heart lies a rare and highly desirable silver “Pie Pan” dial, so named for its unique sloped, multi-faceted design. The dial’s clean crosshair layout adds vertical and horizontal balance, emphasizing the precision Omega intended both mechanically and visually.

The surface exhibits a light, even patina, accentuated by a small dome-like bump between 11 and 12 o'clock—an endearing quirk caused by the dial feet below, visible only upon close inspection. It speaks to the originality and untouched nature of the dial. Applied gold hour markers and dauphine hands complete the ensemble, glowing warmly against the soft silver ground.

Chronometer Calibre and Service Assurance

Beating inside is the revered Omega calibre 561, an automatic movement with 24 jewels and a quickset date mechanism, officially certified as a chronometer—an accolade not easily won. Known for its reliability and smooth operation, the movement has just undergone a full professional service and is backed by a one-year mechanical warranty.

Contemporary Comfort, Timeless Style

Fitted with a brand new brown leather strap, the watch wears comfortably while honoring the tones of the original case. The combination of modern comfort and vintage charm makes this Constellation not just a collectible, but a wearable piece of history.

Quality Knives At A Bargain Price
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
I have had these knives for almost 18 months now and they have held up great Edge retention is fantastic, and as long as you treat them right and don't leave dried tomato sauce on them for 5 days, no rust to speak of or even any discoloring! The build is fantastic and they are well balanced. I still can't believe I got this set for the price I did. I have a collection of pocket knives, I own Japanese wet stones to sharpen and understand what 8cr13mov, s30V and 14c28n is in knife production. (It's metal alloys BTW.) Having said that, I was a bit picky in finding a knife set that was quality built, had good steel and didn't cost $800. I honestly don't know how they are producing this set and not losing their shirts. Full tang design (One piece of steel from tip through the handle to the butt), and has nice glass fiber reinforced polymer handle material. I can't find any reference to this set in particular for what steel is used, but based on using various steel through the years I have a pretty good idea what this probably is. (BTW, I hate to break to you. At this price, it's absolutely NOT German steel...and that's okay anyway.) Brodark references Japanese VG10 steel with their other stand alone chef knives. It is common in the Chinese knife industry to copy an alloy alloy and call it by it's original name. It's NOT Japanese steel. What is commonly referred to as VG10 is 10cr15mov or 8cr15mov. Both are fine steel to use for a "general purpose" knife and perform similar to Japanese VG10, or even US made 440c stainless...perhaps even a little better than 440c. The steel in these knives is pretty dang hard, which makes me think it is 10cr15mov. The 10 is the Chromium content in the alloy. More chromium, more hard, more hard ='s more brittle. There is a balance of how hard without being brittle. Some knife makers use super hard steel to get a wicked sharp edge that holds for a while...buuuut then after a year of use you see all the chips along the edge or perhaps even a tip has snapped off. That's hard, brittle steel. You can't fix chips unless you grind them down and create a totally new edge on the knife and start over. These Brodark knives find a nice balance of hardness for edge retention but enough give to not chip or break off under general use. Like I said, almost 1.5 years of use and no chips, bends, or scratches. I still can't believe I paid around $50 for them. Incredible.

Wow! Amazing knives, regardless of the cost
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
I don’t know how they do it for the price These knives are amazing, and I got them on sale for well less than a Benjamin The package with the block and the knives in it was so heavy, that I needed someone to help me get it out of the inner box. The knives are beautiful, heavy, well balanced. I can vouch, that they are sharp AF, because I cut myself twice unpacking them 😂😂😂 No fault to the manufacturer; they were very well packed. I am just a klutz First time I used them, straight out of the box with only a soapy bath before, was on a tomato and cucumber. I only have the use of one arm, and usually have to get an adaptive cutting board to secure my fruit/veges before I can start cutting them. But these knives were so heavy and so sharp, I didn’t need to do that It cut through the tomato skin like water The hardwood block looks beautiful on my countertop These are beautiful knives on their own. When you throw in how incredibly inexpensive they are… Buy them now. Highly recommended.

Best Knife Block Set For Any Kitchen
Size: Steel King 15Pcs 10.4"×7"×15.4"
We ordered and love the BRODARK Kitchen Knife Set with Block, Full Tang 15 Pcs Professional Chef Knife Set with Knife Sharpener, Food Grade German Stainless Steel Knife Block Set Steel-king Series. This set is one of the best purchases we've ever made. We purchased 4 other brand sets and sent them back due to poor quality, etc. One set cost $299 and was not as sharp or solid as the Brodark, and had straight uncomfortable handles. Our new set is sharp, well-balanced, and the handles have a solid, comfortable feel and look great. The quality block looks very nice and has a sharpener to boot. The blades after washing look fantastic. For under $100 this is stupendous value and product (regardless of price). One set we ordered was from the famous German brand and it had knives missing and the steak knives had tiny handles; we sent it back.

Great knife set
Size: Ivory Series 15Pcs 14.43''×9.36''×6.63''
Overall a great knife set. Well built and craftsmanship, excellent sharpness (we’ll see over time) great looks and value. Would have liked for this color to be available in the bigger set of 8 steak knifes. Word of caution with this or any other knife set, DONOT PUT THEM IN THE DISHWASHER OR LEAVE THEM OUT TO DRY! YOU MUST CLEAN AND DRY THEM AFTER USE, If not they will have water spots which will be hard to remove or worse they’ll get rusted.
