2012/12/10 - Omega the new De Ville Chronograph OMEGA Co-Axial

 

The OMEGA De Ville Chronograph. For the man who doesn’t have it all . . . yet.

Are you thinking about giving a watch to a very special man this holiday season? This is one he might very well choose for himself.

The OMEGA De Ville is the definitive dress watch, long held in high regard for its timeless styling as well as for housing some of the brand’s most innovative watch movements. Of course, one of the most compelling things about a truly classic gent’s wristwatch is how well it complements any wardrobe and the new De Ville Chronograph OMEGA Co-Axial is no exception.

This stunning De Ville Chronograph has a 42 mm 18K red gold case on a brown leather strap.

It is an OMEGA which is uncompromisingly fashionable and has the added attraction of the brand’s industry-defying Co-Axial caliber 9301. 

The two-zone dial has been created in opaline-silver and has two domed sub-dials. The chronograph sub-dial at 3 o’clock has both the 60-minute and 12-hour counters so reading the elapsed time is intuitive. At the 9 o’clock position is the small seconds hand. The watch has a central chronograph seconds hand as well as 18K gold diamond-polished, facetted central hour and minute hands. Its applied Roman numeral indexes are also crafted from 18K gold.

Extra stability is provided by the Si14 silicon balance spring and the De Ville OMEGA Co-Axial comes with a full four-year warranty.

With its combination of simple elegance and cutting-edge technology, the De Ville Chronograph Omega Co-Axial calibre 9301 is a stunning reminder of what a classic, yet highly technical mechanical watch can be. And that guy on your shopping list? He really wants it.
