Clooney ... perfect match.
Omega adds to Clooney style on big day
VENICE, October 1, 2014
Omega brand ambassador George Clooney married lawyer and up-and-coming fashion icon Amal Alamuddin in style last week in Venice, Italy, at a star-studded ceremony.
The award-winning actor and director donned a striking 18K white gold Omega De Ville Trésor watch on the big day – a choice that perfectly complemented his classic black tuxedo.
Characterised by its thin, golden case, the De Ville Trésor of the late 1940s was named such because it safeguarded the legendary 30 mm calibre within. More than half a century later, the De Ville Trésor is reintroduced with one of the most advanced mechanical movements the brand has ever unveiled.
The silvery opaline dial is decorated with a vintage “clous de Paris” pattern, domed 18K gold indexes and a date window at 6 O’clock. The central domed minute and seconds hands are crafted from the material matching the case. A box form scratch-resistant sapphire crystal treated with anti-reflection coating on both sides protects this understated dial.
The 40 mm De Ville Trésor models are available with a polished 18K Omega Sedna gold, 18K yellow gold or 18K white gold case. Borrowing from the styling of its predecessor, the timepiece features a thin case with a height of just 10.6 mm. A classic black or brown leather strap with a polished gold buckle is fastened to the case with curved 18K gold lugs.
Powering this stylish timepiece is the hand-wound Omega master co-axial calibre 8511 – a unique movement which features a time zone function, Si14 silicon balance spring, a three-level co-axial escapement and Omega’s exclusive anti-magnetic technology. The De Ville Trésor is offered with a full four-year warranty.
This officially certified chronometer is resistant to magnetic fields greater than 15,000 gauss and boasts the same level of precision the Omega co-axial calibres are known for.
