The Omega De Ville 32mm

Description

The Omega De Ville ref. 111.140 is a quintessential expression of the understated Swiss dress watch — slim, refined, and built with the quiet confidence of one of Switzerland's most storied manufactures.

Produced in the mid-to-late 1970s, the De Ville collection was Omega's answer to the growing appetite for elegant, city-oriented timepieces, and this gold-tone example embodies that philosophy entirely. The gold dial is kept beautifully uncluttered — a time-only presentation with no date window to interrupt the purity of the layout — with hands that complement the warm tone of the case and dial in perfect harmony.

 At 32mm, it wears with the slim, dressy proportion that defined the era and pairs effortlessly with a suit or formal attire. At the heart of the watch is Omega's in-house Calibre 625, a manual-wind movement of thin, elegant architecture operating at 21,600 vph — a movement prized for its tactile, daily-winding ritual and the intimate connection it creates between watch and wearer.

The gold-plated case with stainless steel case back strikes the balance between warmth and durability that characterised Omega's dress production of the period. A highly wearable and collectible piece of 1970s Swiss horology from one of the world's great watchmakers.
