Omega De Ville Quartz Tank

Omega De Ville Quartz | Gold Cushion Case | Champagne Dial | 1980s Description The Omega De Ville Quartz in a gold cushion case captures the sleek design confidence of the 1980s. The TV-shaped cushion case, with its softly rounded corners and slim profile, creates a distinctive silhouette that sits closer to the wrist than a standard round case. The gold plating retains strong colour with sharp case edges that show no significant wear. The champagne gold dial is clean and refined, with applied gold stick indices at all twelve positions. The Omega logo and horseshoe sit at 12, "De Ville" in italic script and "QUARTZ" in block text at 6. Slim gold hands maintain perfect proportions against the warm dial tone. No date, no sub-dials, just pure time display. The dial has a subtle brushed finish that adds depth. On a black lizard leather strap, the warm gold tones of the case and dial pop with understated elegance. The quartz movement ensures accuracy without maintenance.

Historical Significance The De Ville collection launched in 1967 as Omega's dedicated dress watch line. The cushion case shape was a popular design choice in the late 1970s and 1980s, offering a sculptural alternative to the standard round case. Omega's quartz De Ville models represented the brand's commitment to staying relevant during the quartz revolution without sacrificing the design DNA that made Omega recognisable. Mint-condition vintage Omega dress watches at this level are increasingly difficult to find. The cushion case shape and pristine dial make this a standout De Ville.
