The wristwatch showcased in today's offering is a gorgeous restored example of one of Omega's classic vintage gent's ellipse watches.

Living up to its name as one of the elegant and sophisticated "De Ville" models, it has an elegant case, royal blue dial, and fine ultra-thin original handwound Omega caliber 625 movement.

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

It is fully Omega down to the original hands and winding crown. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration and presents in gorgeous condition.

The case presents as mint on the wrist. The original dial has been meticulously refinished - the gilt printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

One of our watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it.

For the finishing touch it has been equipped it with a brand new leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

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.

A four and a half decade old Omega that presents like new on the wrist!
