    Hello

    I have just aquired this elegeant Omega de Ville. I would be interested if anyone has any information regarding the rare 18k dial. I have never seen one like this before.

    Thanks

    Richard

    Interesting, I've seen a few of that style patterned dial before but the solid gold variety is certainly far less common, quite an interesting and beautiful piece

    I bet Liberace had one of these.

    Love it. Never seen one on a men's model before. I'd wear it!

    There is a DeVille with a similar dial on Ebay right now for a BIN of $289. Looks like it needs some work, and does have some corrosion on the back. 34mm means it is likely a ladies watch, but it does look nice. The seller states the movement is non-working, and likely has an "over-wound mainspring".

    No offense meant :)

    Just curious - I'm not in the market, but it seems like that may not be a terrible price, given that the dial does look pretty nice. Obviously needs another $400 worth of work I'm guessing. But overall looked presentable.
