An Omega De Ville rectangular watch, reference 8269, in 18K yellow gold, with a brushed gold-tone dial, a faceted crystal and an integrated bracelet of gold links.
The Piece
Omega was founded in La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1848 by Louis Brandt and moved to Biel in 1880, and its De Ville line began in 1967.
The case is a tall rectangle, and the brushed gold-tone dial carries two baton markers and the legends Omega and De Ville, under a crystal with bevelled edges. The case and the integrated bracelet are 18K yellow gold, and the folding clasp carries the Omega mark. The movement is hand-wound, and a flat-laid timing check recorded a rate of about three seconds fast a day.
The case is 20 mm (0.79 in) wide and 46 mm (1.81 in) long including the lugs, and the bracelet fits a wrist up to 16.5 cm (6.5 in). The watch weighs 93.4 g (3.29 oz). The Omega box is included, and its inner box is deteriorating.
