Hello everyone!

I'm beyond happy to share some pictures of my first Omega watch.
It's my second "real" watch, with the Sinn 104 St Sa I being the first. This is an everyday tool/diver watch, and "needed" a dress watch.

I looked into vintage Omega's but they were too much of a minefield and hassle, as well as the sizes were ever so slightly too small for me. I settled with a modern omega:

The Deville Prestige 424.13.40.20.02.002:

(this is an outside picture of my watch on my brothers' wrist, he has smaller wrist so it looks a little bit big. On my wrist it looks perfect!)

looks nice! classy dress watch...
hopefully your strap is some combination of rubber & leather otherwise leather can get pretty stinky if you sweat into it during Summer (from my personal experience)....

Thanks for the heads up!
This will be my occasional dress watch, so it shouldn't be too much of an issue here. I'm also from Belgium so the summer weather is always mild 😉

Agreed!
One of the best looks of all time.

JLC has some and others a few but I can think of a dozen Omega designs that make my heart skip a beat and yours is one of them.

Let's add some more heart-stoppers with yours....... I'll start.

Really great pictures. Perhaps because I’ve only seen rendered modern Omega dress watches I’ve never been interested… but now I gotta go to the boutique.

Really classy pick!
