Among the Omega De Ville models of the 1960s–70s, this reference with its cut-glass bezel is one of the most beautiful in the way it takes light.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe case measures approx. 18mm. The glass surrounding the dial is faceted like a gemstone, and each time you tilt your wrist, the rim scatters small points of light like a prism. The silver dial carries nothing but slender baton markers — the ornament is left entirely to the glass, and the dial stays quiet. That restraint is the elegance of this piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInside is the automatic Cal.661, introduced in 1963 and the workhorse of Omega’s ladies’ automatics of the era.

The movement is wound by the motion of the wrist while worn; if left unworn for a period, it may stop and need to be restarted with a gentle shake or by winding the crown. Tested and confirmed running at the time of dispatch. Daily accuracy at the supplier’s inspection was approximately ±1 minute per day; the accuracy of a vintage mechanical watch varies with wearing conditions, position and temperature. Please purchase only if you are comfortable with the characteristics of vintage timepieces.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"flemington vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48437228699860,"sku":null,"price":544.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/2162\/2740\/files\/0572DFAF-2447-4DE3-BB4A-2C19F56750B9.jpg?v=1787008171","url":"https:\/\/flemingtonvintage.com\/en-au\/products\/omega-de-ville-cut-glass-vintage-watch","provider":"flemington vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
