1971 Omega De Ville Vintage Mens Automatic Classic Retro Watch - Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 10037

Today's offering showcases this classic retro Omega De Ville in gorgeous restored condition with sky blue motif.

It lives up to its name as one of the elegant and sophisticated "De Ville" models. It has a classic retro case with sunburst finish, sky blue dial, and automatic caliber 1002 movement also used in Seamasters from the era.

Its monocoque - or one-piece - Omega case when new achieved high water resistance ratings by not having a separate case back.

It has all original parts. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration.

Its case presents as beautiful mint. Despite what the photos seem to suggest, all of the lightly engraved original markings on the back are still fully intact.

Its original Omega dial has been meticulously custom refinished in a sky blue color - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration, a Master Watchmaker has just fully overhauled the movement. We have also timed it on a machine that simulates it being worn on the wrist. It is keeping very accurate time.

For the finishing touch, we have equipped it with a new complementarily colored leather strap with aftermarket Omega style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a full-page custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.

Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
