AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Now available at auction from Second Vintage
A quintessential 1960s Omega dress watch. This Seamaster De Ville is defined by its exceptionally clean silver dial with bright applied indices, complemented by a crisp embossed Seahorse medallion on the caseback.
Brand: Omega
Model: Seamaster De Ville
Movement: Mechanical
Dial: Silver finish with applied indices and date at 3 o'clock
Case Size: 34mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Stainless steel
Production Year: 1960s
Condition: Good vintage condition. Timegrapher: -5s-8s/day ưith strong amplitude, performing remarkably well.
Dial and Hands
The dial is well preserved, featuring a clean silver finish with no significant spotting or staining. The applied indices and Omega logo remain bright, while the printing throughout is crisp and intact. A date window is positioned at 3 o'clock. In contrast to the clean dial, the hands show significant spotting, oxidation, and corrosion visible on their metal surfaces. This heavy oxidation and degradation is clearly visible under macro inspection.
Case and Crystal
The stainless steel case displays honest wear, with light scratches and handling marks present on the case flanks and lugs. The lug profile remains well defined. A smooth integrated bezel surrounds the dial, showing light scratches consistent with the rest of the case. The watch retains its signed Omega crown, which features defined knurling and a clear logo. Turning the watch over reveals a crisp, embossed Seahorse medallion on the caseback. The domed acrylic crystal is generally clear, bearing only minor surface scratches typical of the material.
Movement
Exhibiting remarkable accuracy and consistency, performing brilliantly for a vintage timepiece. The timegrapher records a result of -5s-8s/day ưith strong amplitude.
Strap
The watch is fitted with a brown leather strap featuring white contrast stitching. The strap shows light signs of wear.
Condition
Good vintage condition. The dial is exceptionally clean and well preserved, while the hands exhibit heavy oxidation and significant visible corrosion. The stainless steel case and smooth bezel show honest wear with light scratches and handling marks, though the lugs remain defined and the caseback medallion is crisp. The domed acrylic crystal has minor surface scratches. Supported by the recorded timegrapher result, the movement is performing very strongly.
Dimensions
The case measures 34mm in diameter, excluding the crown.
Remarks
This Seamaster De Ville offers a highly attractive silver dial with bright applied details. The crisp Seahorse medallion and defined case geometry make it a compelling example of classic 1960s Omega design.
History
The Omega Seamaster De Ville emerged in the 1960s as a refined dress watch within the broader Seamaster family. Combining the elegant aesthetics of the De Ville line with the robust case architecture of the Seamaster, it became a highly popular and widely available vintage Omega. Beloved for its versatile design, the model bridged the gap between formal wear and everyday utility, securing its place as a classic choice for collectors of mid-century timepieces.
