: Came across a man's watch on a recent trip to Texas in an antique
: mall. It's an Omega DeVille, nice condition. Would love to get
: this for my husband and my dad is keeping an eye on it and says
: it hasn't sold yet. Everything looks genuine but I have a couple
: of questions that I cannot find answers to on the web. The back
: of the case has a raised DeVille logo of a skyline and the
: serial number is on the case back instead of on the 7 o'clock
: lug. Does this sound right? Otherwise, it had Omega symbol on
: crown top, face had Omega at top, DeVille at bottom and Swiss
: made, bracelet has Omega symbol. Seller wants $800. He has no
: paperwork but said he believes it is circa late 80s or early
: 90s. Condition is very nice and running. (I have no pics.)
: Thanks for your help. Just don't want to buy a lemon.
This is typical of Omegas of the mid to early 1990s. Engraving on the lugs came later and that design was on most Devilles.
