Omega De Ville, Ref. 111.0156, Cal. 625, Men’s Dress Vintage Watch, 1979
A vertically brushed champagne dial and slender gold-tone handset define this Omega De Ville watch from 1979, reference 111.0156. Its round 31 mm gold-plated head spans 38 mm from lug to lug, with a polished bezel and straight lugs. A small fluted crown sits flush with the case above hand-wound caliber 625, accompanied by black leather with subtle grain and black stitching.
Champagne texture and narrow gold furniture
The champagne dial has delicate vertical brushing that catches light across the surface. Applied baton hour markers and small minute hashes keep the layout clear. The Omega logo and De Ville signature are printed.
Thin gold-tone baton hour and minute hands are accompanied by a proportionate gold-tone central seconds hand. Their narrow forms complement the applied markers and leave the brushed dial visible around the time indication.
Round plated case with a flush crown
The round gold-plated case measures 31 mm in diameter, with a 38 mm lug-to-lug span and 18 mm lug width. Its ultra-thin profile, straight lugs and polished bezel give the compact head a defined outline suitable for formal or discreet daily wear.
The small, finely fluted crown sits flush with the case and provides practical manual winding. It is retained among the watch’s original Omega-signed components, preserving the clean case silhouette.
The fitted black leather strap has subtle grain and black stitching. Those details provide a restrained darker contrast to the champagne dial and gold-plated head.
Hand-wound caliber 625
Swiss Omega caliber 625 powers this manual-wind watch. Its thin profile suits the watch’s low case construction, and its straightforward serviceability supports practical use without adding an elaborate complication.
De Ville watches from the 1970s placed emphasis on slim cases and restrained dials. Reference 111.0156 expresses that dress-watch character through its round plated head, vertically brushed champagne surface and narrow gold furniture.
The watch is used and in excellent vintage condition, fully serviced and fully operational. Its original watch head components, including the dial, hands and signed crown, are preserved. The black leather strap accompanies the head. It comes with a 12-month warranty, and worldwide shipping is available.
