Re: urgent queries on my de ville

In Response To: urgent queries on my de ville ()

Older versions of this watch say "Automatic Chronometer". I'm not sure exactly when the change took place, but the newer versions do say "Co-Axial Chronometer" on the dial (as mine does). Regardless of what is written on the dial, you still have the co-axial movement driving the watch.

I happen to love the bracelet on this particular watch, but to each his own. I can't help you with the part number for a leather strap, but if you call your local Omega dealer I'm sure they can get you one.

The model you saw with the see-through sapphire caseback was Keith Downing's DeVille Chronograph (model 4541.31.00 I believe). Since the chronograph models command about a $1000 premium over standard DeVille models, they also come with see-through casebacks. Your model and mine do not.
