SOLD!!! Omega De Ville “Linnen Dial”
DESCRIPTION
In the 1960’s Omega introduced the first De Ville models as part of the Seamaster collection, but in 1967 the De Ville was relaunched as a separate collection of dress watches. This watch is a refined and elegant example of an Omega De Ville from this era. The amazing linen textured dial is made of 18 carat solid gold. The dial is signed “18K” on the back and the “OM swiss made OM” indicates that the dial is made from solid gold. “OM” stands for “Or Masif” in French, which translates to “solid gold”. Very few watches were made with solid gold dials, making this a rare specimen. The dial is encased in a very slim & elegant 18 carat solid gold case.
CONDITION
