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.

This book will make a difference in your presentation.
Format: Paperback
If you rely on Powerpoint-like presentation in your work, get Cliff Atkinson's Beyond Bullet Points. I had determined that improving my company's presentations had potentially very high returns so I started poking around the net and Amazon for resources to help. At first, I struck out with books that were supposed to improve presentations, but ended up being guides on technically how to use Powerpoint. That was NOT what I was looking for. Beyond Bullet Points is very different. It is a philosophy about creating presentations whose purpose is to communicate a story, not dump information. Frankly, it was not intuitive for me so I had to decide to just trust that it would work. When I was about ¾ finished, I started to really "feel" what I was doing. And, to my surprise, the most unlikely people really liked the result. In a world where most business and how-to books are nothing more that restating what you already know (or, what you know isn't true), this one is an exception. I highly recommend it!

Presentations with the audience in mind
Format: Paperback
I bought this hoping it would be a guide to creating Big-3 Consulting-style slides with fancy diagrams and eye-catching graphic design. That is not what this book is. Instead, this book is about how to tell a story with slides, using the framework of a five act drama. With this method forcing you to focus on who your audience is, what they need to know, and how much time you have to tell them (as opposed to trying to shoehorn everything you know about a subject into your pitch) you end up with a presentation that finishes on time for intelligent questions from an engaged audience. Since buying the book I have given several well-received presentations using precisely that technique. With no words on screen there is no temptation to just read the bullet points, and the audience cannot think ahead of you and must instead listen to what you're saying. You have to know your material to use this method, but when you succeed your audience will be impressed with your knowledge of the subject matter. (If you're working in a group project and want to Blue Falcon a non-contributing teammate, try giving them a few of these slides to speak to.) The recommended slide format is one picture and one headline per slide, with no bullet points at all. The book suggests creating Notes Pages with an outline of your talk as a handout, since the slides themselves don't stand alone. (And that's a good thing--visual aids are supposed to *augment* the presentation, not *be* the presentation.) In conclusion, this book might not be for everyone, but it was exactly what I needed.

An outsider's view
Format: Paperback
When it comes to Cliff Atkinson's Beyond Bullet Points, I am a bit of an outsider. I don't read many computer books and, while I have worked with PowerPoint, my presentations are very simple. Since I admittedly use my share of bullet points in these presentations, I thought learning about an alternative approach would be useful. And while there are definite benefits to reading this book, it may not be perfect for everyone. Many people use bullet points in their PowerPoint presentations; this can be a great way to organize thoughts, but Atkinson has a difference approach. Essentially, the Beyond Bullet Points method treats presentations as stories told in three "acts." Act One develops the story, Act Two develops the action and Act Three frames the resolution. Each act is broken down into scenes which provide the details. The first portion of the book explains how to work with each act; the second portion deals with the evolution from initial outline to final presentation. This book assumes a certain amount of PowerPoint knowledge; if you want to learn about the application, this is not the place to start (on the other hand, you don't need to be a PowerPoint expert). One of the nicest things about Atkinson's approach is the way he allows presentations to be pared down to fit the time frame required: his method is designed best with a 45 minute presentation, but it can be easily compressed to a 15 minute or even 5 minute presentation. Another nice thing is that he has a website that readers can access that provides some helpful materials such as template documents. On the other hand, Atkinson treats the issue of bullet points/no bullet points as something of a black-and-white issue. He doesn't really acknowledge that there may be a middle ground where bullet points should be used in certain situations, perhaps even in conjunction with his approach. I think it's more appropriate to view the Beyond Bullet Points as an alternative approach to PowerPoint presentations, not the ONLY approach. Atkinson's writing style is straightforward, and like many computer books, a little dry. But as stated earlier, I am reading this book with something of an outsider's view. This is a good book, but Atkinson's inability to look beyond his own approach keeps it from being a five-star work. Nonetheless, if you do a lot of PowerPoint presentations, there is enough useful material in here to merit a read.

A Refreshing Approach to Presentations
Format: Paperback
I ran across this book while researching a college workshop on perfecting presentation, dealing with public speaking and effective use of PowerPoint. As one who has suffered through numerous electronic slides that did little or nothing to augment the speaker's efforts, I was delighted to see this fresh and innovative approach. I believe this process works best, however, when one's speech is primarily persuasive in nature. Although these ideas helped me set up a strong introduction and conclusion, in a recent lecture I resorted to bullet points for the material I felt the students had to master. Perhaps as I get more used to Atkinson's technique, I'll better about using it in lecture. However, the business applications seem quite worthwhile. My students' workshop presentations that used his techniques were highly engaging. I highly recommend this book and the supporting web site.
