Omega introduced the De Ville collection within the Seamaster family in 1960 as a way to bridge the gap between the core, tool-watch Seamaster line and the more sophisticated and dressy Constellation series. The result was a perfect hybrid, merging tool-watch grit and grind with a dosage of urbanity. In 1967, the De Ville became its own independent collection. Dating to before the De Ville left the Seamaster family, this example features a 18k yellow gold case in fantastic unpolished condition and a 18k Omega bracelet in near unworn condition with an adjustable clasp.
