History The De Ville collection emerged as an independent line in the late 1960s, representing Omega's dedication to refined, urban aesthetics separate from their purpose-built professional models. During the 1970s, the brand fully embraced the era's evolving design language, introducing bold cushion and tonneau cases that offered a more substantial presence on the wrist. These models combined robust steel architecture with elegantly finished dials, providing a perfect balance of durability and sophisticated mid-century styling.
