Dial and Hands

The simple stick hands feature a dark finish that provides excellent contrast. They are well preserved, presenting clean surfaces with no visible oxidation or corrosion.

Case and Crystal
The 36mm stainless steel case features a thin polished bezel integrated smoothly into the overall geometry. The lugs remain well-defined, while the polished surfaces and bezel show light to moderate surface scratches consistent with age and honest wear. Beneath the caseback, the inner case rim shows visible dirt accumulation and minor pitting. The domed acrylic crystal is clear, with no significant scratches, crazing, or chips visible. The watch retains its clearly signed Omega crown, complete with well-defined knurling.

Movement
Powered by the ultra-thin Omega Caliber 711 automatic movement, the copper-colored plating is bright and clean. There are no obvious signs of corrosion or damage on the movement plates or bridges. The caliber is fully engraved with "OMEGA WATCH Co SWISS", "ADJUSTED TWO (2) POSITIONS", "TWENTY-FOUR 24 JEWELS", "711", and the matching serial number "26534655". Visible dirt and grime are present on the case perimeter surrounding the movement. The timegrapher records a rate of +15+17s/day. Exhibiting remarkable accuracy and consistency, performing brilliantly for a vintage timepiece.

Remarks
This late-1960s De Ville is an excellent expression of minimalist design. The combination of the striking vertically textured dial and the ultra-thin Caliber 711 automatic movement makes this a highly wearable and mechanically sophisticated dress watch.

History
The Omega De Ville collection emerged as a standalone line in 1967, separating from the Seamaster family to focus entirely on refined, elegant dress watches. Free from the bulky requirements of sports models, the De Ville allowed Omega to experiment with sleek case profiles and sophisticated dial finishes. The Caliber 711, introduced during this era, is celebrated as one of Omega's thinnest automatic movements, enabling the brand to create exceptionally slim automatic watches without sacrificing mechanical capability.
