Omega Seamaster De Ville 166.020

Omega Seamaster De Ville 166.020 in stainless steel, a silver dial featuring a date function and fitted with a black leather strap. This has an automatic-winding Calibre 562, serial dates this watch to 1965.

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.

Although many examples really fit into the core Seamaster and Omega aesthetic of their time periods, the De Ville is where Omega did a little design exploration. It's fairly straightforward at first glance – with an excellent silver dial, applied dial details, and a great size at right around 35mm diameter – but it stands out with the dial finish as you move closer.

Fully serviced, timed and adjusted, new OEM parts where required, otherwise parts were re-conditioned and re-used, and offered with our 2 year warranty of accurate time keeping and operation.
