Hi all

Dusting off my inherited early 80s (??) De-Ville for a service thought id try and find out a little more about it.
Im sure its pretty basic but if I post up some pics could anyone assist...?

Omegas site dosnt seem to show it. Below seems to be the closest.

Happy to help, with photos! We would encourage you to do some research first, and show us what you have found.

 

Hi all

As I say have read thro Omegas Watch database for the De-Ville series
One comes close (linked above) but its a no-date
Also gone through e-bay looking for the same but none there either (and most stuff is somewhere on the bay)

As I say its a Quartz Motion in gold with a date complication which I have been unable to locate anywhere.
(The strap is I believe un-original)

WOW those mesh straps were very 1970's you had it all serviced & cleaned up ?

 

Not been serviced for about 5 yrs now. And to be truly honest since the battery went flat its been on sat on the dresser
Yes it now needs a full strip, and also a nice black leather or Croco strap.

 

You should get it sorted so you have a choice this is my "retro" watch I bought it in 1987 when the jubilee bracelet was all the rage it was like a Rolex but not, cost me a months wages still runs perfectly gets a new battery every 2-3 years for £15

Looks good mate
Aye I will have it fixed the only downer is I know the service strip and new strap @ SwissTimeServices is going to be way over the actual value of the piece

 

I use these guys very good & set prices
