This Omega Seamaster De Ville is housed in a stainless steel case that has been intentionally left unpolished, it retains the crisp lines, factory proportions, and honest character that discerning collectors seek. The clean silver dial is beautifully balanced with applied baton hour markers, slim hands, and a date display at 3 o'clock, offering the understated sophistication that made the Seamaster De Ville such an enduring design.

Powering the watch is Omega's highly regarded calibre 565 automatic movement, one of the brand's finest vintage date movements, featuring a quick-set date function and renowned for its reliability and smooth operation. The movement has serviced by our watchmaker and is running as it should, providing confidence for its next owner while preserving its original mechanical integrity.

A particular highlight of this example is its original stainless steel Omega "Beads of Rice" bracelet, reference 1037, a highly desirable and increasingly difficult-to-find bracelet (at least in this condition!) that perfectly complements the watch's elegant profile. Celebrated for its exceptional comfort, fluid articulation, and unmistakable vintage aesthetic, the 1037 bracelet has become a sought-after feature in its own right and significantly enhances the collectability of this piece.

This is an honest, well-preserved example that has not been over restored, allowing its originality to shine through. Combining timeless styling, a freshly serviced calibre 565 movement, the coveted Beads of Rice bracelet, and an unpolished case, this Seamaster De Ville represents an outstanding opportunity for the collector or enthusiast seeking an authentic vintage Omega that is equally at home on the wrist or as part of a carefully curated collection.
