Our Take
Omega has always been popular with celebs but did you know that U.S. President John F. Kennedy wore an Omega during his presidential inauguration in January 1961, WOW! So he may not have worn this one, but it’s still pretty unique, its case is finished off in black PVD and gold filling, it measures 24mm in diameter and 28mm from lug to lug. The rectangular case with gold bezel is in good shape with only a few light scuffs here and there, the steel back screws in and exhibits the ‘De Ville’ logo. The porcelain white dial is beautiful and clean, with roman numeral markers and sword-shaped hands, all under a mineral crystal in excellent condition. The gold crown is signed with the logo. The watch is powered by a quartz calibre 1455 movement with 6 jewels and keeps perfect time. The serial number on the inner case is 395.0835. The original strap has been retained but does show wear, it will fit a wrist of about 6” or 15cm approximately. The watch comes without the original box and papers, but a gift box will be provided. Water-resistance is not guaranteed so please do not use it near water.
