Full set, including outer box, flannel sleeve and silver plated presentation box, original Omega alligator strap and buckle, open papers. There can't be many of these time capsules floating around any more.

Exceptionally sharp 14K/SS front load "Unishell" Seamaster DE VILLE, original signed crown and crystal. Solid 14K gold bezel as marked on the case, many of these only had gold-filled bezels.

1963 was the first year for the Seamaster DE VILLE, this is a reference LL6066. DE VILLE was added to the dials at the request of Norman Morris, Omega's United States distributor. Prior to this the "Unishell" Seamaster was simply marked Seamaster.

Superb original sunburst silver dial with applied gold figures and gold Omega symbol and script.

Immaculate adjusted TWO (2) positions caliber 550 automatic, serial number dates this to 1963. Winds, sets and runs well, but has been sitting in my safe for years, so service before regular use is recommended.

34.2-mm not including the signed crown x 40.5-mm lug tip to lug tip.

$1500.00, worldwide shipping, cost by location. Payment to be discussed.

Sorry, all sales final unless grossly misrepresented.

Amazingly sharp photos btw

 

I concur, and what a beautiful example! Understated elegance and a classic.

 

Time machine find this one.

 

Glad someone snapped it up. Always first quality from Norman. Congrats to buyer and seller.

 

Indeed.

"Winds, sets and runs well, but has been sitting in my safe for years..." Oh, just to have a wee peek in that safe.

 

I've been to his house. His is bigger.

 

It is on it's way and will go quite nicely with my current 1963 birth year watch. An 18k Century. View attachment 1071557

 

It arrived today and looks awesome in my antique display case.
