OMEGA Releases Limited Edition New De Ville Central Tourbillion

Known as the creator of some of the most sought-after and desirable timepieces for both modern and vintage styles, Omega continues to inspire both customer and competitor with their fine detailing and luxurious quality. This quality is the element that, quite deservingly, has honoured them with the title of one of the oldest and most respected of prestige Swiss watchmakers.

With nearly 200 years passing since its invention, even today a tourbillion is still considered to be the pinnacle of luxury watch making, and nothing else demonstrates this art to its highest quality. Omega’s latest wristwatch, the new Central Tourbillion from their De Ville collection, is yet another spectacular timepiece that blends stunning design, profound craftsmanship and ground-breaking innovation, featuring a Co-Axial calibre and a diamond-set bezel to great effect.

The unique and intriguing dial of the timepiece adds a contemporary twist to the classic beauty of the tourbillion movement, which is visible through a sapphire glass caseback with an anti-reflective treatment on both sides. The titanium tourbillion cage showcases momentary revolutions at the centre of the dial, with the 18K red gold alpha-shaped seconds hand set within the tourbillion cage, and the similarly crafted ‘flying’ hour and minute hands etched onto the sapphire crystal. Added details also include facetted 18K red gold indexes that are delicately applied at the 12, 3 and 6 o’clock stages of the dial.

The Omega De Ville Central Tourbillion’s plates and bridges are finished in an outstanding chocolate brown shade, achieved through the treatment of physical vapour deposition, PVD. The textural quality of the sun-brushed metal adds depth to the hand-polished bridges, and the movement is housed in a 38.7mm 18K red gold case with complementary red gold hands, wheels and screws.

However, perhaps the most striking element of the timepiece is the design upon its bezel, which is adorned with 24 baguette diamonds of the finest quality that are cut into trapezoidal forms.

The De Ville Central Tourbillion is to be produced in an edition limited to eight pieces, and the limited edition number will be engraved on the side of each casebody. The watchmaker’s initials that are engraved on the back of each tourbillion main plate are for distinguishing each individual timepiece, and these beautiful wristwatches are showcased upon a luxurious brown leather strap with a polished foldover clasp.

At the heart of the piece is the Co-Axial calibre 2635, a self-winding movement with a 45-hour power reserve. Like all Central Tourbillion models, the classic De Ville Co-Axial case guarantees water resistance up to 30 metres, and is offered with a three-year warranty. This Omega Central Tourbillion watch comes in its own presentation box in the form of a leather watch winder.

Although this watch is limited in its edition, only being available at Omega Boutiques, many classic Omega watches and back catalogue designs are in just as much demand as their new and limited releases, providing you with all of the quality and luxurious detailing that Omega are renowned for. In particular, you can view the range of established Omega De Ville watches right here at Banks Lyon Jewellers, and you’ll be certain to find a timepiece that is superbly designed and beautifully crafted to complement any wrist.
