It lives up to its names as one of the elegant and sophisticated "De Ville" models. It has a wonderful retro case, gorgeous refinished money green / forest green dial, and automatic caliber 1000/1002 movement from the 10xx series used in Seamasters from the era.
It has one of Omega's monococque - or one-piece - cases, which when new achieved high water resistance ratings by not having a separate case back.
For the bracelet Omega used an uncommon and interesting original free sizing design that can fit virtually any wrist.
It is fully Omega down to the original band, hands, and winding crown and presents in beautiful true expertly restored condition. The photos couldn't do it justice.
The dial has been meticulously refinished, and the printing could pass to the naked eye as Omega factory done work.
As part of the restoration, a watchmaker has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it.
For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a new leather strap 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 and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
