The original Omega De Ville Trésor (French for "treasure?, released nearly 50 years ago, was characterized by its thin, classical gold case and contained a 30-mm Omega movement. The new model harks back to that watch's retro design but upgrades the interior substantially by outfitting it with one of the most advanced Co-Axial movements that the brand has produced. Omega Master Co-Axial Caliber 8511 is a manual-winding movement that includes a time zone function, an 18k rose gold balance bridge, a Si14 silicon balance spring, and, of course, Omega's hallmark three-level co-axial escapement. The movement is also a COSC-certified chronometer and, most notably, features Omega's exclusive anti-magnetic technology, which enables the watch to resist magnetic fields greater than 15,000 gauss (a technology that debuted to great fanfare in an Omega Seamaster watch last year).
The case ?available in yellow gold, white gold, or Omega's proprietary Sedna gold (more on which here) ?measures 40 mm in diameter and has a box-form scratch-resistant sapphire crystal over the silvery opaline dial. The dial is domed and is decorated with a vintage Clou de Paris pattern. The hands and hour markers are made of 18k gold; the hour and minute hands are arched to complement the curvature of the dial and crystal. Another domed sapphire crystal can be found in the back of the case, providing a view of the movement. The polished caseback also sports the engraved words "ANTI-MAGNETIC,??5,000 GAUSS,?and "Si14.?The Omega De Ville Tresor is water-resistant to 30 meters and comes on a black or brown leather strap with polished 18k gold buckle. Prices are $13,800 for the yellow-gold and Sedna-gold models and $15,000 for the white-gold version. All come with a four-year warranty.
