STONEBRIDGE WATCHES SAYS...
Omega Seamaster DeVille “Crosshair”
Ref. 166.020 | Calibre 565 | Circa 1960s
This elegant Omega Seamaster De Ville, reference 166.020, is a superb example of mid-century Swiss watchmaking, combining refined proportions with subtle yet distinctive design details. The standout feature is its highly sought-after crosshair dial, a configuration prized by collectors for its balance and visual symmetry. Far less common than standard dial variants, the crosshair layout adds a layer of rarity and desirability that elevates this piece beyond the ordinary.
The silvered dial itself displays gentle signs of ageing, with a light, even patina that speaks to its originality and history. Rather than detracting, this soft character enhances the watch’s vintage appeal, complementing the applied baton hour markers and slender hands beautifully. The date aperture at 3 o’clock remains crisp and well-integrated, maintaining the clean aesthetic that defines the Seamaster De Ville line.
Measuring a versatile 34mm case size, the watch wears effortlessly on the wrist, offering that classic “universal” fit that suits both modern and traditional tastes. The stainless steel case remains in excellent condition, retaining sharp lines and a pleasing polish. Inside, the automatic movement has been serviced as recently as May 2025, ensuring reliable performance and peace of mind for its next owner.
The watch is presented on a black leather strap that is soft, supple, and ready to wear, paired with an Omega-signed buckle that completes the look with period-correct detail.
At Stonebridge Watches, we have a particular admiration for crosshair dials—there is something timeless and architectural about their design that continues to captivate collectors. This Omega Seamaster De Ville is a fine example of that enduring appeal, offering rarity, elegance, and authenticity in equal measure.
