OMEGA De Ville Chronostop ref.146.012 cal.920 / 1970s Italian Market

— An avant-garde raised by Italian air —

A rare Omega designed specially in the 1970s for the Italian market, where collectors' taste ran notably sharp.

It departs boldly from the original design, taking a deformed cushion case in the line of the celebrated Geneve Dynamic.

Simple and minimal.

A metallic blue tuxedo dial fused with a flowing integrated bracelet gives a sporting yet elegant appeal that goes far beyond the sum of its parts.

— A structural beauty history has loved —

A confident 41.5mm diameter, with a substantial integrated bezel carrying a fine radial hairline.

A timeless bearing, tied to no particular decade, gives the wrist an outstanding presence that reaches through to the modern luxury sports watch.

The front-opening UFO-type case has no lugs, and a locking ring system on the caseback supports a comfortable fit.

A precise single-pusher chronograph carrying the genes of the legendary moonwatch Cal.861. The pleasure of a manual mechanism that entrusts start, stop and reset to a single button.

— A movement descended from the moon landing —

Fitted with the manual-wind chronograph Cal.920 with date, developed on the base of the Cal.861 that earned enduring fame in the Speedmaster Professional.

Running at a low beat of 21,600 vph, it is a celebrated calibre with outstanding durability and serviceability.

A stopwatch mechanism in which a single pusher rhythmically governs start, stop and reset offers the highest kind of pleasure to anyone who loves a mechanical feel.

— Refinement as an instrument, and a meeting you get only once —

The starburst dial reflects light beautifully, with a clean seconds track stripped of anything unnecessary and bold, high-contrast sports hands: legibility pursued as an instrument.

From the applied hour markers to the layout of the luminous material, the refined Omega aesthetic of the 1970s lives here.

A one-of-a-kind vintage Omega that raises casual dress and adds grown-up playfulness to formal wear.

Enjoy at your own wrist a special watch carrying both an aesthetic ahead of its time and a story.
