Hi

I was looking to add another vintage Omega to my modest collection and came across this little Tank style watch for £150

it’s showing as a Cal 625 and has a reference of 111.053 I did a check on the Omega website for the reference number but nothing is coming up

there is very little on the internet about this reference apart from an Italian watch forum which had a very similar watch and a listing on Chrono24 for what seemed a ridiculous inflated price where the owner stated that its from the Deville collection

is this correct is this model from the Deville collection and possibly from the 70s ?

it is listed as a midsize watch which is 21mm x 32mm which I know is very small but I know Tank style watches are in and around this size range

If any one knows anything further on this it would be great to know ,

Here's a similar version of your watch in 18k gold, in a 1967 Omega catalog:

Serial number looks to make it about 1974, caliber should be a 620 according to the OVDB, but that's not always spot on.

Cal 625 superseded the 620, so OPs watch should be fine.
