Description

This is a fabulous example of a vintage mens watch made by the premium Swiss make Omega.

This is the De Ville model with the fully automatic calibre 711 slimline movement.

Everything about this watch is original, the dial is in superb condition and it has contrasting black hands and baton markers. This is the perfect watch for that black tie dinner.

The Omega symbol is on the crown.

The case has been professionally cleaned and polished so it is absolutely pristine.

The watch case measures 29mm wide not including the crown and is 36mm long.

Omega are one of the most exclusive watchmakers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance that whispers class.

Overall this watch is in outstanding condition and highly sought after by Omega collectors.

The watch has been fully serviced and is guaranteed to be a genuine Omega in all respects. It has been professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.

It is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers parts. Each part is then thoroughly cleaned in a three stage ultrasonic cleaning process.

The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturers approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and sealed.

Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give you reliable and dependable service and will not require further service for many years.
