This wonderfully preserved example sits in a slim and classic 34mm stainless steel case, retaining its original charm and proportions that made the De Ville line a dress-watch favourite throughout the 1960s. Collectors will especially appreciate the rarely seen original Omega crown paired with sleek faceted indices and a stunning flawless linen dial, all of which remain beautifully intact after nearly six decades since its construction.
In addition, this timepiece comes freshly serviced with all parts laid out by our professional watchmaker for all to see in the images above. Little to no other dealers do this and it’s a testament to full transparency here at Montre D’or. With the reliable Cal.711 automatic movement inside running excellently as shown in the timegrapher reading above, just like it was when it left the factory nearly half a century ago.
