Description
Straight from the golden era of horology stems this exquisite Omega Seamaster De Ville, Reference 135.020. Hailing from approximately 1968, this particular example presents itself in good condition. It embodies the sophisticated elegance that defined Omega’s mid-century design philosophy, in an era when these models were part of Omega’s core range of watches for everyday use. Whilst originally intended as a men’s watch, this piece can nowadays be rocked by men and women alike.
The watch features a classic steel case, meticulously crafted to sit gracefully on the wrist. Complementing its sleek lines is a timeless silver dial, offering superb legibility and an understated aesthetic that remains eternally stylish. This clean presentation underscores the watch’s versatile character, suitable for any occasion.
At its heart lies the renowned Omega Caliber 601, a finely engineered manual-wind movement. This reliable mechanism speaks to a purist’s appreciation for traditional watchmaking, requiring daily interaction to bring its precision to life.
What we love:
- Warmly aged original dial, with an exceptionally clean esthetic thanks to the lack of a date window.
- A strong case bearing some minor marks of wear, but still featuring sharp lines.
- Original up to and including the flat foot crown.
What you should know:
- Unless otherwise stated, it is common for vintage watches to not come with box and papers. In the rare example that a watch does come with box and papers it will be mentioned in the description. All purchases come with a bespoke black wooden watch box and warranty card.
- Proven by years of reliable performance, this vintage watches are perfectly capable to withstand daily wear. Do note, however, that a vintage watch should not be assumed to be waterproof, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
