Omega De Ville – Automatic Date – Factory Blue Dial – 35 mm

This vintage Omega De Ville pairs a deep factory blue dial with a 35 mm stainless steel case. Slim silver-tone baton markers and a framed date window at 3 o’clock stand out against the blue, while the original Omega-signed acrylic crystal gives the dial a gently curved profile. The watch is fitted with a generic dark blue leather strap and supplied in a generic box.

Story & Heritage

The factory blue dial is what gives this De Ville its character. In softer light it reads as deep navy; turn the watch toward a window and the blue opens up, bringing the slender hour markers into sharp relief. The date window is neatly framed and easy to read, a practical detail that fits naturally into the dress-watch design.

Turn the watch over and the stylised De Ville emblem offers a second detail to discover. Its elongated lettering is more expressive than the restrained signature on the dial, a small flourish tucked against the wrist. The two sides give this Omega a charm that goes beyond its colour: it’s an understated watch with details that reward a closer look.
