During this era, Omega focused on creating elegant dress watches that sat comfortably under a shirt cuff. The caliber 620 was designed specifically as a two-hand movement without a running seconds hand, a deliberate engineering choice that allowed for a notably slim case profile. This dedication to slender proportions helped cement the reputation of the De Ville as a sophisticated and enduring dress watch. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-DVX-0083
