The wristwatch showcased in today's offering is a handsome example of one of Omega's pleasing De Ville pieces.

Living up to its name as one of the elegant and sophisticated "De Ville" models, it features a classic and understated case with 18K gold plated top, original luxurious champagne dial, quartz Omega movement with sweep seconds and quick-setting date, and sapphire crystal. 

It has the look of a solid gold Omega for a fraction of the price.

It is in gorgeous condition. It presents as a 9.8 out of 10. The dial is original and the gold on the case top appears to have been redone.

Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
