As far as I know, the observatory and stars are on the back of all Constellations. On stainless steel backs, they are usually on a gold disc in the centre of the back, but I have two "C case" Constellations [1972 and 1973] which have the whole of the back in stainless steel including the observatory and stars which are not therefore on a separate disc and are not gold - the main case of one is SS and the other is 14ct gold filled. Likewise, there is no separate disc on my only 18ct gold case - it's all gold, gold, I tell you!!
Hope this helps - it's only my experience and someone else may have much more precise information.
I have one more Constellation coming back tomorrow from Omega servicing and if it has anything different I'll post again.
