Offered for sale is a boldly futuristic vintage Omega De Ville Ref. 166.094, a standout example of Omega’s 1970s design experimentation. With its wide circular Disco Volante or UFO style case, minimalist dial, and manual wind movement, this De Ville perfectly captures the era’s blend of space-age aesthetics and Swiss mechanical precision.
The striking stainless steel case measures approx. 30mm across but wears larger thanks to the full brushed bezel that integrates seamlessly with the dial. The grey dial is minimally marked, with thin stick hands and indices keeping things sleek and sophisticated.
