In 1967, the Omega De Ville transitioned from being a “Seamaster” model to establishing itself as a distinct line, marked by its refined aesthetic codes and impeccable design. This collection seamlessly blended Omega’s reliable movements with exquisite craftsmanship, captivating watch enthusiasts with its diverse and subtle models. The lot offered here is a noteworthy creation that embodies the distinctive style of the De Ville bracelet watches series. Crafted from 18k yellow gold, the solid rectangular case features a thick glass recalls the classic layout of the master Andrew Grima, yet exhibiting a finer and more suitable line. Each of the creations by Andrew Grima was often a mix between jewelry and a timepiece and produced in very limited quantities. Sometimes with more extravagant designs and some other more classical (such as the present example) these watches have created their own group of elite collectors and when at auction these pieces are very sought after. The watch, still in fresh conditions with subtle signs of oxidation, showcases the timeless appeal that De Ville has maintained over the years. Adding a touch of artistic intricacy, the bracelet of this timepiece is exceptionally unusual, creating a subtle woven decoration that mimics the art of knitting. Executed with great intricacy, it produces a fascinating and elegant effect, elevating the watch’s overall aesthetic. The dial, protected by a massive and solid glass, boasts a brushed gold color with painted logo, model name, applied gold indexes, and black pointed baton hands. This Omega De Ville is a testament to the collection’s evolution, embracing feminine, bracelet-like variants while retaining the brand’s commitment to detail and timeless elegance. A unique and refined addition for collectors appreciating both craftsmanship and artistic subtleties.
