Our Take
For more than 170 years Omega has been at the forefront of exploration, whether to the moon or the depths of the ocean, they have been there. This great example of the classic De Ville model doesn’t disappoint, measuring 24mm in diameter and 28mm from lug to lug, petite so good for a smaller wrist. The stainless steel case is in good condition with steel plain bezel and a steel back that back pops in, brushed polished finish. The silver aged dial is minimalist, has stick markers, and sword-shaped black hands, all under an acrylic crystal. The crown is a press in type and sets the time, full instructions on how to use it can be found online. The watch is powered by an Omega calibre 1350, swiss-made, battery-powered quartz movement and keeps perfect time. The serial number on the inside of the case is 591.0012 which dates it back to the mid-’90s. The strap has been replaced with a black leather bracelet and will fit a wrist of about 6.7” or 17cm approximately. The watch comes with the original box which is damaged, unfortunately. Water-resistance is not guaranteed so please do not use it near water.
