Description from the seller

This classic 1970s Omega De Ville is distinguished by its beautifully preserved vertically brushed silver dial and distinctive front-loading monocoque case. Fitted to its original signed stainless steel mesh bracelet, the watch offers an elegant and authentic profile characteristic of the era.
Brand: Omega
Model: De Ville
Movement: Automatic
Dial: Silver with vertical brushed finish
Case Size: 35mm (excluding the crown)
Case Material: Stainless steel
Production Year: 1970s
Condition: Good vintage condition. Timegrapher: -10-13s/day, performing remarkably well.
Dial and Hands
The watch features a well-preserved silver dial characterized by a refined vertical brushed finish. Applied baton indices with black inserts match the handset perfectly, accompanied by intact luminous dots and a cleanly framed date window at the 3 o'clock position. The dial typography remains crisp with no visible print loss. The stick hands feature matching black inserts and luminous material, showing visible oxidation and spotting on their metal surfaces consistent with age.
Case and Crystal
The stainless steel case utilizes a front-loading monocoque design, often associated with Omega's TOOL 107 reference tools. The case shows honest wear, with light surface scratches present on the polished flanks, lugs, and the thin polished integrated bezel. The caseback is engraved with TOOL 107 and the Omega De Ville logo. A signed knurled crown featuring the Omega logo sits at the traditional position. The domed acrylic crystal displays light surface scratches and minor wear near the edges.
Movement
Powering this De Ville is an automatic movement. Exhibiting remarkable accuracy and consistency, performing brilliantly for a vintage timepiece. The timegrapher records a rate of -10-13s/day.
Strap
The watch is fitted with its original signed stainless steel mesh bracelet, providing a highly period correct aesthetic. It secures via a fold-over clasp signed with an applied gold-tone Omega logo. The clasp exhibits light wear and minor scratches, and the bracelet accommodates a maximum wrist size of 19cm.
Condition
Good vintage condition. The dial is excellently preserved, while the hands display visible oxidation and spotting. The monocoque case, bezel, and original mesh bracelet show honest wear with light surface scratches throughout. The domed acrylic crystal also exhibits minor scratches. Supported by the timegrapher results, the automatic movement is performing remarkably well.
Dimensions
35mm (excluding the crown)
Remarks
The combination of a vertically brushed silver dial, a distinctive monocoque case, and the original signed mesh bracelet makes this De Ville a highly attractive example of 1970s Omega design.
History
The Omega De Ville collection, originally launched as part of the Seamaster line before becoming a standalone family in 1967, was created to offer a more refined and dress-oriented aesthetic. During the 1970s, Omega frequently utilized front-loading monocoque cases, often accessed via specific tools like the TOOL 107, to create sleek profiles while protecting the movement. This era of De Ville represents a successful balance of mid-century elegance and practical everyday wearability.
