Description
1973 OMEGA Vintage De Ville Mens Full Size Automatic Watch Blue Vignette Dial - Stainless Steel

Gorgeous Restored Condition - Fine Ultra Thin Caliber 711 - 1 Year Warranty

Today's offering showcases this impeccably restored example of one of Omega's ultra-thin automatic vintage watches.

Living up to its name as one of the sophisticated "De Ville" models, it features a classic round case, beautiful royal blue vignette dial, and very fine automatic Omega movement.

It is nice and pleasingly larger than most similar dress watches from the era - it measures 36mm without the crown - the same size as a mens Rolex Datejust.

Powering it is Omega's very fine thin automatic caliber 711 movement. It has 24 jewels and is adjusted to two positions.

The 700 series has a direct lineage to the celebrated 500 series, and is arguably as good, and collectors are beginning to recognize it accordingly. It was the last very fine movement series of its kind before Omega began to make budget cuts because of the quartz revolution.

It has all of its original parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents in gorgeous condition.

Its case presents as mint with only light signs of having ever been polished. Our photos couldn't do it justice.

Its dial has been expertly restored and presents as mint. And its well-crafted movement is clean.
