Hi, I came across a Omega De Ville, limited edition. It seems to be a limited edition of 100 units for Portugal as it is a homage to the poet Fernando Pessoa with reference 48343232. Anyone as an idea of the actual value, history, etc. Appreciate your thoughts.

Hi many thanks. That's indeed something to add up. I've came across one on sale and were looking for details.
There was an extensive thread about this LE De Ville but I can't find it. Need to search the forums for variations of "passagem des horas" etc. Maybe super sleuth @Vitezi can find it . It would be a better watch than the Speedmaster GMT IMO.
Unfortunately, not much information seems to be available about this particular model. It apparently is based on the (discontinued) De Ville Co-Axial Power Reserve model, so some details on the movement and different references can be found here: http://www.watch-wiki.net/index.php?title=Omega_De_Ville_Co-Axial_Power_Reserve A few of these Power Reserve models have come up for sale on this forum: https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-de-ville-power-reserve-co-axial-ref-4832-31-32.24249/ https://omegaforums.net/threads/omega-de-ville-co-axial-power-reserve.22313/ You can find another example from the limited edition run here: http://www.fiosdopassado.com/watches.php?id=624#624
Hi @Vitezi many thanks for the information, that was great. Does it worth something around 4000€? The normal versions can be found for much less (2500€-3000€) and despite being limited to 100€ the only change is the case back as I can see. Your thoughts are appreciated
I think that only you can assess the true value of this model. Do you like it a lot more than a normal version? Would you enjoy it more, knowing that it is a limited edition model with a fancy caseback? How much of a premium, if any, would you be willing to pay for that extra enjoyment? Can you afford that premium? Your own answers to those types of questions will help you judge whether this model is worth an extra 1000€ over a normal version. Hope that helps!
