Omega - Seamaster De Ville [Near-Mint] "Serviced" - 14765 61 SC - Men - 1965

This superb Omega Seamaster De Ville offers a perfect blend of classic 1960s elegance and robust Swiss engineering, making it an exceptional choice for collectors and enthusiasts seeking a near-mint example. The beautifully preserved gold-capped case exhibits crisp lines and sharp lugs, while the untouched sunburst dial radiates timeless sophistication with perfect script and applied gold indices. Equipped with the revered Omega caliber 562 automatic movement, this watch delivers impressive performance, running strong within 4-6 seconds per day with excellent amplitude—a testament to its healthy condition. Few examples combine such eye-catching original presence with this level of mechanical integrity. A compelling piece for the discerning collector. Brand: Omega Model: Seamaster De Ville Reference Number: 14765 61 SC Serial Number: 22219609 Movement: Omega Caliber 562, Automatic, 24 jewels Dial: Original champagne sunburst dial, applied gold indices and Omega logo, black printed minute track, date at 3 o'clock Case Size: 34mm (excluding the crown) Case Material: Gold-capped stainless steel (cap gold) Production Year: 1965 Condition: Near-mint, recently serviced, performing at +4 to +6 s/d with strong amplitude Dial and Hands The sunburst champagne dial is in outstanding condition, free from spots or scratches, retaining its original print and depth. Contrast remains sharp with the elegantly faceted gold markers and matching dauphine hands. The luminous material on both the hands and dial plots is clean and intact, harmonizing with its vintage character. The framed date window at 3 completes the balanced presentation. Case and Crystal The 34mm gold-capped case, manufactured by C.B (Charles Dubois), is in near-mint shape with strong bevels and clearly defined edges. Lugs remain sharp without the softening seen in polished examples. The signed Omega crown and acrylic crystal are both excellent, with minimal surface marks only visible under magnification. The case back features a crisp and deeply embossed Seamaster hippocampus medallion, attesting to mild use and careful preservation. Movement Powered by Omega’s automatic caliber 562, this movement is renowned for reliability and precision. Recently serviced, the watch is running at an impressive +4 to +6 seconds per day with robust amplitude. The movement is clean and correct to reference, reflecting Omega’s highest quality standards of the period. Strap Fitted with a high-quality brown leather strap that complements the warmth of the gold cap case, finished with a gold-tone pin buckle—ready for immediate wear. Condition Near-mint and ready to enjoy. The case, dial, and movement all present exceptionally well, with only faint, honest signs of age apparent under magnification. Running strong with high amplitude, this Omega is both a collector’s prize and a dependable daily companion.
