Omega Chocolate DeVille - Prepare to be stunned!!

I don't believe anybody has ever posted real world pictures of this undeniably remarkable watch on this forum. I present to you my wife's Omega. Yep, it's spectacular and unreal but my woman deserves nothing less. When Omega pull out all the stops, they sure know how to make amazing watches like this DeVille. Most people know nothing about Omega at this level, so, given the rareness of the watch, I thought I'd do a thorough pictorial review of the watch. I also give Bill permission to highlight my post for an 'editors pick'. Anyway, putting aside all simplicity and naivety, never was there a watch more successful at achieving the goals it was made for than this DeVille. So no, lol, the watch is not merely for telling the time or for fashionable wrist decoration to complete some outfit. However, somethings are better left unsaid, so I'll leave it at that because it'll only breed confusion, misunderstanding and worst things besides. Anyway, the watch has gob smacking presence on the wrist. In fact, sometimes I find it down right annoying how sales people flock around my wife and fawn at her feet.  They won't leave us alone!! At first it was amusing enough but now it's just painful, contemptible and very superficial. Lol, I'd also say Rolex wearers, just like myself,  are distinctly defensive when they see the chocolate DeVille and discover it's an Omega. Of course, I personally don't mind that it's a much MUCH better watch than my Daytona. It's better designed, better made, better finished, has a nicer movement and is more accurate too. I can tell you all that the watch is AMAZINGLY accurate, reliable and consistent and has been so for more than three years. From personal experience, ownership and testing, I'd rate the 3313 as a better movement than the Rolex 4130 any day of the week.

The blinged out crown is a favourite with the ladies alright and the pink mother of pearl subdials are as pretty as they are feminine. These feminine touches show just how well Omega understand female sensibilities. The polished mirror finish of the DeVille case is brilliant under lights. The chocolate design is one of the finest horological design concepts in the last decade. It's incredibly good. WOW!!!!

We got confirmation this afternoon that my wife's latest Omega has arrived. I won't say what it is, but it's just as spectacular as the chocolate DeVille and just as rare as well. Neither the watch or the magnificent movement has ever been seen on this fo...

The book you guys are looking at and on which the superb Omega chocolate DeVille is placed, is something very rare and precious just like the watch. It's the first edition of Edward Gibbon's Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. It's very special to own s...

I salute you sir. I'm sure she looks out of this world. It's amazing watch. I'm genuinely happy for both of you. I'd be interested to know how and why you choose this watch because it's rare and uncommon. I'm wondering which version your better half is we...
