Vintage Omega De Ville, Art Deco Tank, Silver Dial, Cal. 620 from 1960's

The Omega De Ville collection was officially launched in 1967, evolving from the Seamaster line into a dedicated dress watch range. Characterized by slim cases, refined dials, and modern design, the De Ville quickly became a cornerstone of Omega’s catalogue for those seeking understated elegance.

This example, reference 111.016, dates from the 1960s and features a rectangular stainless steel case measuring 23.5 mm wide by 41.5 mm lug-to-lug. It houses the manual-wind Calibre 620, one of Omega’s thinnest hand-wound movements, perfectly suited for slim dress cases.

The silver dial is minimalist and balanced, with applied stick indices and slender hands. The absence of complications beyond the time display keeps the design crisp and refined, embodying mid-century Omega design at its best.
