This vintage Omega De-Ville, circa 1998, features a silver-tone case, silver dial and black leather strap. In very good condition with light traces of use, it is an elegant choice for office wear, dinners or formal occasions, adding a refined finishing touch to both tailored day looks and evening ensembles.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this Omega De-Ville and how does it wear? A: This watch has a 22 mm case, giving it a refined, compact vintage profile. It is best suited to those who prefer a smaller dress-watch look or have a slimmer wrist, rather than a modern oversized fit.
Q: Is the Omega De-Ville considered a dress watch? A: Yes. The De Ville line is known for elegant, slim, classically styled watches, so this piece works especially well for smart daywear, evening wear, and occasions where a discreet watch feels more appropriate than a sporty model.
Q: Is this watch suitable for everyday wear? A: It can be worn regularly with sensible care, but as a vintage circa 1998 watch it is best treated more gently than a modern sports watch. It is ideal for office, dinner, and occasion wear, while heavy impact, water exposure, and sport use are best avoided.
Q: Is it water resistant? A: We recommend treating this watch as a vintage dress watch rather than a water-ready model. Even if a watch originally had a water-resistance rating, seals age over time, and Omega advises regular testing. For peace of mind, avoid swimming, showering, or soaking it unless it has been pressure-tested very recently.
Q: How should I care for the black leather strap? A: Keep the strap away from water, dampness, perfumes, cosmetics, oils, and prolonged direct sunlight. Leather straps age naturally, so storing the watch in a cool, dry place and rotating wear will help preserve its appearance.
Q: Can the strap be replaced if needed? A: Yes. A leather strap can normally be replaced or refreshed, and Omega recommends using an authorised specialist to ensure the correct fit and to avoid damage during the change. If you prefer to keep the watch as close as possible to its original dress style, another slim black leather strap is usually the most natural choice.
Q: How often should a vintage Omega be serviced? A: Omega recommends a complete service roughly every 5 to 8 years, plus periodic water-resistance checks. If the service history of a vintage watch is unknown, many buyers choose to factor in a routine inspection after purchase for reliable long-term wear.
Q: What product information is included with this watch? A: This piece is listed with no product information included. Unless otherwise stated, it should be assumed to come without the original box, papers, or extra presentation items.
Q: Can the serial number help date or verify the watch? A: Yes. The serial number, case details, movement, dial, and overall construction are all useful when assessing a vintage Omega. This watch carries serial number 56651696 and is dated by us to circa 1998; for deeper historical research, Omega can sometimes provide additional archival information when sufficient watch details are available.
Q: What condition should I expect from this piece? A: The watch is described as being in very good overall condition, with light traces of use, light scratches to the shiny hardware, and very good internal and external condition. As with most vintage watches, gentle signs of age are normal and form part of the character.
