History The Omega De Ville line emerged as a standalone collection in the late 1960s, separating from the Seamaster family to focus purely on elegance and refined design. The reference 511.0532 was specifically designed as a ladies' watch, characterized by its compact, slim profile and timeless appeal. During the 1970s, Omega frequently utilized the caliber 625 to power these slender dress models, ensuring reliable manual-winding performance without sacrificing the elegant proportions required for formal wear.
