Visible features
• Square yellow-gold-toned case with faceted bevelled bezel edges • Light cream-toned dial with applied baton indices and matching two-hand layout • Omega emblem and name below 12 o'clock, with 'DE VILLE' printed above 6 o'clock and 'SWISS MADE' at bottom • Fluted winding crown at the 3 o'clock position • Textured brown leather strap with tone-on-tone edge stitching
Mechanism and Internal Markings
The seller reports that the "manually wound movement has been fully serviced and is the excellent Calibre 620". Because no movement or interior caseback photographs are provided in the listing, this calibre designation, jewel count, internal reference stampings, and physical condition cannot be independently verified from the available documentation.
Dating and Source Inconsistencies
The listing provides contradictory chronological data across its text and specification fields. The headline and item description assert that it is "An excellent vintage watch from 1970", while the dedicated metadata block specifies "Date of manufacture : 1960" and categorises the era under "Period 19th Century". Without an accessible serial number from the movement or caseback, the precise production date within the 1960s or 1970s remains unconfirmed.
Dial and Physical Characteristics
Direct observation of the front reveals a light cream-toned square dial configured with applied baton hour indices and a two-hand layout. Printed markings include the applied Omega emblem and brand lettering beneath the 12 o'clock marker, "DE VILLE" above the 6 o'clock marker, and "SWISS MADE" along the lower edge. The timepiece is fitted with an "attractive brown leather strap", which exhibits a textured surface finish paired with tone-on-tone edge stitching. The vendor describes the case as a "25mm square mens Omega De Ville watch (ref-111.071) in a Gold faceted case".

Research required

  • Research required: Internal date discrepancy in source listing: title and body text cite 1970, while specification metadata lists 'Date of manufacture : 1960'.
  • Research required: Movement calibre 620 and interior case markings are reported by the seller but not visible in the provided image.
