Since I had my mother’s old omega de ville serviced I’ve fallen in love with it. I’d like to see other people’s if you have them. Photo of mine attached.
My spouse has three Omegas. Two in 14-karat white gold, and one in 14-karat yellow gold. The round white gold one is a favourite, second only to her Rolex Lady Date-Just.

The crystal on that one is synthetic sapphire, tinted a pastel blue, then the perimeter faceted like a gemstone. The darker blue “halo” around the perimeter is caused by refraction of light. It is the only one of its type that I have seen. The dial has been refinished. I bought this one at scrap prices because the movement was rusted, and badly worn. Mrs. C. Loves this one.
I was fascinated by the teeny tiny movements so I bought a lot of them for a while, not a totally bad thing to do, since the 620/625 movements came in very very handy, as they are used in mens models as well
This one is my best find, complete mystery model:
This one was also a mystery, I failed the Rorschach test, thought it was something else, but it's pretty clear that it's Sakura themed:
for my wife
she is somehow not an omega fan and does not like leather straps either
deville 625 was NOS
seamaster was serviced at switzerland
the tourneau is 14k solid gold and more like a unisex size
