Late-1960s Omega Elegance
The Vintage Omega De Ville Automatic reference 162.045 belongs to circa 1969, when compact proportions and restrained detailing defined a particularly elegant approach to the everyday dress watch. Its 32 mm steel case and signed acrylic crystal create a concise, period-appropriate silhouette, while the original crown preserves a considered functional detail. Within, Omega’s automatic calibre 1002 brings a 20-jewel mechanical movement to this understated format. For the contemporary collector, it offers a focused expression of late-1960s Omega design: practical automatic engineering presented with measured, unassuming refinement.
