The Omega De Ville watches, introduced firstly in 1960 by the watchmaking company, have been in the market as one of the highly popular collections of Omega. The prime attraction of the De Ville watch is the new revolutionary Co-Axial escapement developed brilliantly by Dr. George Daniels. The co-axial escapement is continuously improved to reduce the impulse friction and hence the major improvements in accuracy and reliability could be achieved.
Many of the Omega De Ville watches have the Co-Axial escapement in it in contemporary designs and models. One of the popular model known as the Omega De Ville Co-Axial Rattrapante has two innovative mechanisms which can measure the time period of two different events. The Omega De Ville Co-Axial Chronoscope, another favorite in the market comes with an exceptional dial consisting of three overlapping sub-dials showing 30-minute, 12-hour and seconds counters. Omega De Ville Hour Vision Annual Calendar, also using the Co-Axial escapement, is attractive with dial displaying the date and month. The added capability of identifying the 30 and 31-day months of this model is praise worthy. This feature makes it advantageous and this timepiece requires manual correction only once in a year.
The Omega De Ville Co-Axial Chronometer with only basic functions is different from the above models. This timepiece displays mainly the basic functions like the date, hours, minutes and seconds. This is very simple and looks classic. It is perfectly ideal for those who like simplicity. The De Ville Co Axial Chronograph with the Co-axial escapement is a finer version of the De Ville Chronometer. The free sprung balance in the Omega De Ville Co-Axial watches assures the reliability and precision.
