The De Ville Ladymatic is back…
And it was no less than Nicole Kidman who recently unveiled
the new OMEGA Ladymatic to the world at The Ritz Carlton in Beijing.
Originally launched in 1955 and continuing for the better part of a
generation before disappearing, I confess that I had never heard of this
model until today. Technically part of the “De Ville” collection, it
was one of the brand’s first self-winding watches to be designed
especially for women and it featured the smallest automatic movement
OMEGA had ever made.
A whopping 27 variations will be available….a few looks below…

One good thing about this reissue is that
the watch gets to use newer technology aka Omega’s Co-Axial Caliber
8520/8521 — not available in the 1950′s for sure!
Various options include: 34mm “wave
pattern” case (red gold, yellow gold or stainless steel), bezels are
polished metal or diamond-set, sapphire crystal caseback, wave pattern
dials (black lacquer or mother-of-pearl), plain or diamond-set hour
markers, luminous hands, on a matching bracelet or alligator strap
(black or white)
So, ladies…if you are you there…what do you think of this watch?
