Furthermore delivered with Omega Extract of the Archives confirming the production of the present watch on 25 January 1965 and its delivery to Switzerland.

This Constellation model is very appealing to the collector because of the rarity of the retailer signature on the dial. Founded in 1883 as a watchmaking manufactory in Bienne, Türler is still one of the few remaining privately owned businesses in the watch and jewelry trade. The headquarters of the family business, since 1907, is still situated on the famous and prestigious Bahnhofstrasse in Zürich at the Paradeplatz.
