HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the serial number on the movement we can accurately date this watch to being made in 1973.
CONDITION
The De Ville range is Omega’s dressier watches, and this makes no exception to that. With a simple two hands on the dial, and powered by the calibre 625 manual wind movement with 17 jewels, it is simple yet elegant. Everything is working correctly and the watch keeps good time. The case is 20 micron gold plated, and this is all in good order. The dial is clean and original, having never been restored or repainted. We have cleaned the small dots of black off the dial that were picked up post photography but before the video was taken. The original signed winding crown is still fitted, and the glass is very good. The leather strap is new, and could be swapped for a different colour if preferred.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
