Vintage Omega De Ville Automatic Watch (Reference 561.0010)

This is a vintage Omega De Ville automatic wrist watch dating approximately from the late 1960s to early 1970s. The watch features a square or 'TV-shaped' stainless steel case with a gold-tone (likely gold-plated or gold-filled) finish that shows visible signs of age and wear. The champagne or silvery-gold dial is adorned with applied baton hour markers and simple matching hands. It is marked with the Omega logo, 'OMEGA AUTOMATIC', and 'DE VILLE' at the six o'clock position. The dial exhibits significant condition issues, including visible spotting, oxidation, and possible moisture damage or 'tropical' patina along the edges, particularly on the right side. The crystal appears to be acrylic and shows minor surface scratching consistent with age. It is fitted with a non-original black leather lizard-grain strap. The fluted crown appears to be original to the piece. Based on the listing text, this model uses reference number 561.0010 and likely houses a caliber 671 or similar thin automatic movement. The overall condition is considered 'fair' to 'good' for a vintage piece, showing heavy character but requiring professional cleaning or restoration for a pristine look.
