Today's offering showcases striking all-original example of one of Omega's retro styled automatic vintage watches in gorgeous original condition.

Living up to its name as one of the sophisticated "De Ville" models, it features a robust retro case, gray dial with very cool and subtle painted pattern, and fine automatic Omega movement with quick-setting date.

It is large for the era measuring 37mm in diameter - one millimeter larger than a Rolex Datejust.

It has all of its original parts and presents in gorgeous condition - a 9.5 out of 10.

Its case presents as mint with light signs of previous polishing. Its original Omega dial with steel baton markers also is mint with slight aging to the markers visible under magnification.

A Master Watchmaker has freshly overhauled the watch. 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, it has been equipped with a new calfskin leather strap and aftermarket Omega style buckle 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.

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.
