    The C6865 Seamaster De Ville With Tiffany Dial is an original Omega model commonly mistaken for a re-dial due to the unusual combination of fonts. The reality is this Norman Morris creation of the 70's is an underrated gem, and one of the last great De Ville's of the era. [..]

    Very interesting. A similar - indeed wonky - Tiffany font is seen on Movado from the same era as well

    Interesting that they went for pure Tiffany signing on that one and didn’t keep the Movado, haven’t seen that before

    Basically all Movado’s for Tiffany only have Tiffany printed

    The 14K C6865 Seamaster De Ville (and it's gold-filled counterpart C6336) has the benefit of a bit more heft than the earlier Seamaster De Villes and perhaps more presence on the arm by way of its chunkier profile.

    Yea the lugs definitely have a bit more beefiness to them for sure, there’s also a C6864 in gold filled cases which is pretty similar too

    A very informative and illuminating article about a misunbderstood Seamaster. The fleshing out of the Norman Morris collaborations will be valuable in future Omega treasure hunts.
