History The Omega De Ville line was introduced to represent the brand's more elegant, dress-oriented designs, separating itself from the robust Seamaster family in the late 1960s. By the early 1990s, the De Ville collection had fully established its own identity, focusing on slim profiles, refined dials, and reliable quartz or mechanical movements. The caliber 1430 is a respected quartz movement from this era, designed to provide dependable accuracy within a slender case architecture. Watches featuring specific corporate or governmental engravings, such as this example, serve as fascinating historical artifacts that document the intersection of traditional Swiss watchmaking and international institutional milestones. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-ODX-0056
