Omega De Ville

tobyf27 · Jun 30, 2022

Hi Guys,
I recently came across a vintage omega geneve which seems to be in decent condition, I’m not to sure of the production year. Do you think it’s a good deal at $540?

Absolutely not, that’s a really terrible buy for $500, its from the period Omega made junk watches and a quartz DeVille from that era just isn’t worth owning when you can get a good mechanical DeVille or Geneve for the same money or less.

Most 70s / 80s quartz in general. The quartz crisis was bad for the whole Swiss watch world omega included.
