History The Omega De Ville line emerged as a standalone collection in the late 1960s, designed to offer refined, elegant dress watches distinct from the sportier Seamaster family. During the 1970s, the De Ville became synonymous with slim profiles and sophisticated dial executions. The manual-winding Caliber 625 was a key movement for Omega's ultra-thin dress models during this era, prized for its compact architecture and reliable performance.
