1973 Omega Vintage De Ville Mens Full Size Automatic "TV Shaped" Watch - Stainless Steel

Omega

Item No. 9645

Today's offering showcases this gorgeous example of one of Omega's fine retro vintage watches.

Living up to its name as one of the sophisticated "De Ville" models, it features a "TV style" case, striking green vignette dial, and very fine automatic Omega movement. Our photos couldn't do it justice.

It is pleasingly larger than most similar style watches from the era - it measures 35.5mm without the crown - nearly the same size as a mens Rolex Datejust.

And though most non-round watches are fitted with handwound movements, this model has Omega's fine automatic, 24 jewel caliber 711 movement that was adjusted to two positions and it still allows the case to maintain a thin profile.

The 700 series has a direct lineage with the celebrated 500 series, and is arguably as good, and collectors are beginning to recognize it accordingly. The series ended the 500/700 family of movements used before Omega began trying to reduce their costs. They were one of the finest mass produced movements from the era.

It has all of its original parts and has just finished being restored with a true expertly done restoration. It presents as about a 9.7 out of 10 condition.

Its case presents as beautiful mint. Its dial has been meticulously restored - the printing could pass as Omega factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration the movement has just been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. Its movement is near pristine. Photos of the inside available upon request.

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 brand new 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.
