OMEGA DE VILLE PRESTIGE 41 MM, STEEL ON LEATHER STRAP

About this watch

A timeless collection since 1994, the OMEGA De Ville Prestige is now in its third generation. Continuing to represent classical design and refined elegance, the timepieces offer a range of patterns, finishes and colours to suit different lifestyles and personalities.

In this 41 mm stainless steel model, the domed PVD wine burgundy dial features a sun-brushed finish. The display is distinguished by rhodium-plated hands, as well as alternating Roman numerals and cabochon indexes.

The pure look of the timepiece is completed by a date window at 3 o’clock, a small-seconds subdial at 6 o’clock, and a railway minute track on the outer zone.

This Master Chronometer certified watch is presented on a burgundy leather strap and is driven by the OMEGA Master Co-Axial Calibre 8802, which can be admired through the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal caseback.

The Longines Legend Diver, a notable diver’s watch, has been thoroughly updated. It now features a 39 mm diameter case, mirroring the design of the original 1959 model. This tool-watch, suitable for underwater exploration, comes with either a black or blue lacquered dial.

To really appreciate the finer details of a timepiece, OMEGA uses synthetic sapphire crystal with a highly scratch-resistant and anti-reflective treatment. Before the machining and finishing processes take place, the sapphire crystals are produced under the Verneuil process, also called flame fusion. It involves the melting of the raw substance using oxyhydrogen flame and the crystallisation of the melted droplets to form a cylinder. Graded 9 on the Mohs-hardness scale (graded 1-10), the resulting sapphire crystals are virtually scratch-proof and very hard, ensuring an unhindered vision at all times.
