Help identifying these rare Omega De Ville's

Hi
I have two Omega De Ville's; one from 1968 based on its movement number, with the other around the same time I guess. The watches have been in the family for sometime. I'm intrigued to find out more about these watches. For all the research I have done online, I'm not able to find anything like these.

If anyone has any clues it'll be appreciated!

Hi and welcome.
These are typical 1970s watches from a time in Omegas history that many would like to forget and unfortunately rare does not necessarily mean desirable. The movement number you have shown may date from the late 60s but it is not unusual that they could sit around in the factory before being cased and these watches both have a 70s feel to me
One or both could be 18k gold but without seeing hallmarks or casebacks I would just be guessing.

More information regarding movement calibres and model reference would be available inside the caseback and on the movement.

Finally see this omega page for similar-ish model I found by searching omega ba351

I quite like the red one. Got a very cool vibe to it! Both are awesome imo.

I do not know the paper which you pictured for which watch it is but the "BA" code at Omega means 18k solid yellow gold. To find info you will have to open the watches and check inside them the exact references and calibers.
