·I bought this watch some years ago used, and had to send it (twice) to Omega for service.
This is the 4531.50.00 from a couple decades ago. One of the reasons I wanted it... the bracelet!
After wearing it for a while, I somehow decided I didn't like it as much as I thought I did, and traded it to my watchmaker for other watches and various other considerations.
I had asked him about "the last Omega" I was considering buying, one of the DeVille Prestige models from the 90s. He suggested that it was nothing new in my "collection" (heh) and that he would be willing to sell this back to me at a very good price.
So here it is on my wrist again for a trial to see whether I like it enough to keep it, which I very well might. I don't recall why I didn't keep it, perhaps because its lume wasn't super-bright... but I am less concerned about that as I used to be, so it might be coming "home" for good.
We'll see!
In case you were curious, this is what I was looking at:
And maybe I will get one some day. We'll see.
