Hi guys, my father bought this watch from a local AD in the 70-80s but I can't really tell what model it is. If its an early deville or some other model. I have two of these one thats even older which is my grandpas in white gold whilst this one is in 18k gold. See the images and try to help me figure out what kind of omega this is :D

Oke, Omega's records can be incomplete but I'll try on the dealer's website and see what pops up.

I think that the SN is correct, the writing was so small that it was very difficult to see even with a loupe :/

Hi, I think that's a De Ville from the 60s (I'm guessing 66 by that SN) sporting a Cal 620, 17 jewels, and known for being quite flat. Haven't seen one in gold before. Very nice!

Omega built and sold many watches that didn't exactly fit into their standard model scheme...They were usually mens "jewelry" dress watches with HW basic movements like the one shown....
The fact that yours is cased in 18k adds substantially to its value...But as a family heirloom, it's probably just academic...
