Just like all the Constel - lat ions Gra nd Luxe the watch would have been mounted with the well-known articulated gold bracelet. Finding the bracelet too flexible, the owner wanted a more solid feel to his watch so he started his quest for a heavier bracelet (total WEIGHT 117 grams). The current bracelet is an extremely solid and heavy bracelet and Omega Bienne confirmed that some of their retailers had the license to produce bracelets stamped with the Omega markings
