Omega - De Ville - Ohne mindestpreis - 511.190 Cal. 620 - Damen - 1960-1969

Introduction

This is a vintage Omega De Ville Ref. 511.190, a refined ladies’ mechanical watch powered by the Omega Calibre 620 manual-winding movement. Its compact 19.8 mm case, elegant silver-tone dial, applied baton indexes, and distinctive faceted crystal give the watch a characteristic late-1960s to early-1970s Omega aesthetic.

The faceted crystal is especially attractive, catching the light around the edge and giving this small dress watch a jewel-like appearance.

Historical & Collector Value

Omega introduced the De Ville name during the 1960s as an elegant dress-watch line, and compact mechanical De Ville models from this period are now appreciated for their understated design and traditional Swiss movements.

Research on Ref. 511.190 with Cal. 620 shows documented examples dating from approximately 1967 through 1970, including examples identified as 1967 and 1970. Therefore, without the movement serial number, the safest dating for this particular watch is circa late 1960s to around 1970.

The Calibre 620 is a compact hand-wound Omega movement used in a number of elegant watches from this era. Comparable Cal. 620 examples with known serial numbers are also documented around 1967–1970.

For collectors, the combination of the small mechanical movement, classic De Ville styling, and faceted crystal represents an appealing example of Omega’s vintage ladies’ watch production.
