$1,312.00 USD

Every timepiece is independently inspected, tested, and authenticated by Pilbrows Watchmakers, New Zealand's trusted watchmaking specialists since 1947, before being presented to you by Timeless Luxury.

The OMEGA De Ville Automatic Ref. 166.033 is a beautifully proportioned vintage dress watch from the late 1960s, embodying the restrained elegance and refined design that established the De Ville as one of OMEGA's most enduring collections. Featuring a classic silver-tone dial, applied hour markers and a compact 34mm stainless steel case, this reference offers the understated styling and traditional proportions increasingly sought after in vintage OMEGA watches.

At its heart is the highly regarded OMEGA Calibre 565 automatic movement, a 24-jewel mechanical calibre incorporating a quick-set date function and approximately 50 hours of power reserve. Introduced during one of OMEGA's strongest periods of mechanical watchmaking, the Calibre 565 is particularly well regarded among collectors for its robust construction, reliability and serviceability.

With its vintage proportions, clean dial design and automatic mechanical movement, the Ref. 166.033 offers a distinctly different wearing experience from a modern dress watch. Its understated appearance makes it equally suited to formal occasions or as an elegant everyday vintage OMEGA.
