The Omega De Ville “Deauville” is a distinctive 1970s creation, and one of the most unique tank designs ever created. The compressor case, automatic movement, and wrap around bracelet make this a highly unusual tank watch with a surprising amount of water resistance. This reference 155.0005 features a striking rectangular stainless steel case with sharp architectural lines, giving it a bold and futuristic profile compared to the more traditional watches of its era.
The vertically brushed grey dial highlights the minimalist aesthetic, with slim baton markers and a subtle date-free layout that emphasizes symmetry. Powered by Omega’s reliable caliber 684 automatic movement, this model is both stylish and functional, representing a fascinating chapter in Omega’s experimentation with form and design during the 1970s.
