It lives up to its names as one of the elegant and sophisticated "De Ville" models. It has a classic retro case, red gradient dial, and automatic caliber 1000/1002 movement from the 10xx series used in Seamasters from the era.
It is 100% Omega down to the original hands, winding crown, and even signed crystal. It presents in beautiful true expertly restored condition. The dial has been flawlessly refinished, and the printing could pass for Omega factory done work.
The dial is slightly darker than it appears under the bright photography lights. It is a darker red gradient.
For the finishing touch it has been with a new leather strap 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.
