Our Take
Omega is one of those brands that everyone knows and loves, it’s been featured in many films and is even the official timekeeper of the Olympic games. This very attractive classic Omega dates back to somewhere between 1982 – 1985, it a midsize piece, originally a gents watch but these days may be more suited to a lady, the steel case measuring 32mm in diameter and 34mm from lug to lug. The gold plated bezel retains excellent definition with its plain round bezel and faceted lugs, it does seem to be faded though. The steel brushed back screws in and exhibits the De Ville logo. The gold two-tone dial has raised stick markers, gold sword-shaped hands and a date window at the 3 o’clock position, all under a mineral crystal. The steel crown is signed with the logo, and functions set the time and change the date. The watch is powered by a calibre 1430 quartz movement, with 6 jewels and keeps perfect time. The serial number is 196.0256, 396.0951. The bracelet has been replaced with a black genuine leather bracelet and will fit a wrist of about 7.5” or 19cm approximately. The watch comes without the original box but will be accompanied by a gift box. Water-resistance is not guaranteed so please do not use it near water.
