Omega watch into several series
While many Omega watches bear one of the model series names, quite a few bear only the OMEGA name. This occurs for several reasons. First, in earlier decades, it was not as common for every watch to have to be part of a specific model line. Many watches were simply sold under the company name. Certain models series were given names to help differentiate them by purpose or target market, but the other models were simply sold as "Omega Watch."
Second, during the 1960's and 1970's, OMEGA shipped many bare movements for other manufacturers to custom build OMEGA cases. So a moderate number of OMEGA labeled watches from that period were sold with dials and cases not made by Omega Watch, and thereby not part of any of the official factory model series. Omega watch discontinued this practice in the early 1980's, as it was seen to be weaken the strength of the OMEGA brand.
And finally, even today, many watches under the OMEGA DeVille line omit the DeVille name from the dial to keep their looks especially neat and uncluttered.
Omega Watches With Multiple Model Names On Them
You can certainly find two model line names on the same watch. Up through the 1960's, the Seamaster models paralleled the traditional style of watches, such as the "Seamaster DeVille". It perfectly integrates the water-resistant Seamaster cases with the high-class movements found in the DeVille line.
As a matter of fact, another typical series of dual-name watch are Speedmaster models. Seamaster were marked at the case back and used to promote that the Speedmaster. Exceptional water resistance is a distinguishing feature that different from many other chronographs at that time.
The current DeVille line is divided into several series: the DeVille Coaxial, DeVille Prestige, DeVille Symbol and DeVille Classic. Of these, the Coaxial is the newest, featuring the Daniel's Coaxial Escapement-the most significant advancement in mechanical wristwatch technology in many decades.
The remaining series of DeVille models mostly use the same movements used across most Omega watch model lines. The differentiation between these DeVille series are the case and bracelet styles. The "Symbol" derived its name from the first models in this design bearing art symbols-such as the oriental Yin-Yang-on their dials.
Very few watches in this series bear the DeVille name on their dials. The DeVille line keeps to very clean, classic designs. So dial labeling is normally kept to an absolute minimum of one or two lines of descriptive text. The DeVille Coaxial Limited Edition is the one notable exception. Omega watch broke from their normal tasteful conservatism by issuing the initial coaxial models with its dial cluttered with four lines of descriptive text, including one over the Omega watch logo and name.
