History The Omega De Ville collection emerged as a standalone line in 1967, designed to offer a more refined and dress-oriented alternative to the brand's robust Seamaster and Speedmaster tool watches. Characterized by slim profiles and elegant dials, the De Ville quickly became a symbol of refined mid-century and 1970s watchmaking. During this era, Omega frequently utilized their Caliber 625, a reliable and compact manual-wind movement that allowed for the creation of exceptionally thin and graceful dress cases without sacrificing mechanical integrity. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-ODX-0050
