Omega 1974 De Ville

Nov 17, 2008,01:29 AM
 

Over the years, Omega made a few iterations of this model, either with a steel or 14K gold-plated case.

Yours is probably 1973 MD 511.0458 with calibre 485 (could also be a later model with calibre 1070)

Case : rectangular (20 X 28 mm) – 14K yellow goldplated (20 mic.) with stainless steel back.
For leather straps of 17 mm lug-size (originally shipped with a stin-nylon strap with bascule buckle).
International Collection : 1973-1975
Swiss retail price (1974) : CHF 310.-

Value? Difficult to say. Gold-plated watches are not really sought-after and this is not a rare model.

I would think USD 200.00 for insurance purposes would be fair.
