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, which is a petite vintage dress-watch size. It offers a discreet, elegant look on the wrist and is especially appealing if you prefer slimmer, more jewellery-like proportions rather than a large modern watch. The listed wrist perimeter is 18 cm.
Q: Is this watch better for formal wear or everyday use? A: The stainless steel case, silver dial and black leather strap give it a classic dress-watch look, so it works particularly well for office wear, dinners and smarter day-to-evening outfits. It can be worn regularly, but as a vintage watch it is best treated with a little more care than a modern sports watch.
Q: Does this watch come with box, papers or other product information? A: No additional product information is listed with this piece. If a box, papers or booklet are not shown in the product information on this page, they are not included with the watch.
Q: Is the movement quartz or mechanical? A: The current product information does not confirm the movement type for this exact watch. If that detail is important to you, we recommend contacting us before purchase and we can confirm it for this individual piece.
Q: Can the black leather strap be replaced? A: Yes. One of the most common questions vintage De Ville owners ask is about strap changes, and leather straps are routinely replaced over time for comfort or style. A watchmaker can fit a fresh strap, but it is always best to confirm the exact lug fit for this watch before ordering a replacement.
Q: Is a 22 mm watch too small by modern standards? A: It is smaller than most modern watches, but that is part of its charm. Many buyers choose vintage De Ville models precisely for their refined, understated proportions. If you like a subtle, classic look, the 22 mm size can feel elegant rather than small.
Q: Is it water resistant? A: We do not recommend assuming water resistance on a vintage watch unless it has been freshly pressure-tested. Even if a model was rated when new, age can affect seals and gaskets, so it is best to keep it away from showers, swimming and prolonged moisture.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: The product information lists the external and internal condition as very good with light traces of use. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful wear on a vintage piece.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Omega De Ville? A: Wipe the case gently with a soft dry cloth, keep the leather strap away from water and store the watch in a dry place away from direct heat and sunlight. Periodic servicing by a qualified watchmaker is recommended for vintage watches to keep them performing well.
Q: How do you authenticate this watch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is vetted by in-house experts. For vintage Omega pieces, buyers commonly focus on details such as the case, dial, serial and overall consistency. This watch is listed with serial number 57385000 and sold as an authentic Omega De Ville circa 1998.
