Here is a spectacular, all original Omega Seamaster pre-De Ville from 1961. The silver sunburst crosshair dial is in excellent condition, with a steel Omega logo and emblem and barely any marks. It has wedge strip hour markers, double markers at 12 o’clock. The baton hands are in very fine condition. The steel framed window at 3 o’clock displays the date, which can be semi quick-set by first turning the hands through midnight so the date changes, then immediately turning the hands backwards to 21:00 and then forward through midnight again. Repeat as necessary.

The stainless steel bezel is in very fine condition with only light overall wear. The slim stainless steel case with slightly spread lugs and the original crown is in very fine condition with only light overall wear, mostly at the lugs. The stainless steel case back is in very fine condition, with a crisp and clean hippocampus logo and only light overall wear. It carries the inscription “Waterproof”, which should not be relied upon for a 60 year old watch. The case does not appear to ever have been polished.

The watch comes on an after market leather strap and buckle of good quality. 

Inside the watch, Omega’s high grade 562 movement beats strongly and accurately to within about +-12 seconds per day. The watch was fully serviced in October 2026 and comes with a 12 month warranty on its proper mechanical functioning.

The Seamaster De Ville combined the sportiness of the Seamaster with the strict elegance of the De Ville. When in this condition, it is a real find that will add to any vintage collection.

Our watches are delivered in a luxury wooden watch box, fully serviced with a 12 month warranty that covers the mechanical functioning of the watch under normal use. We offer 14 days full return rights and are very proud of our reputation for outstanding customer satisfaction.

NB! Note that we are based in Switzerland and that the buyer is responsible for any import fees their country may impose on a purchase from abroad. Ask us if you have any questions.
