1964 Omega Seamaster De Ville 14K YG (Ref. KL 6610) W/ Cartier Cosigned Dial

The Speedmaster might be the watch that made Omega a household name (and took it to the moon), but the Seamaster has been around quite a bit longer and has its own incredible legacy worth talking about. 

First released in 1948 in celebration of Omega’s centennial anniversary, the Seamaster became a worldwide success and was the brand’s top seller for a long time. Today, it’s the longest-running name in the Omega catalog and still holds a special place in plenty of collectors’ hearts.  

The Omega De Ville was first introduced as a subcategory under the Seamaster name in the early '60s, until Omega saw the early success of the younger and dressier styles of the De Ville. In 1967, Omega made the De Ville a stand-alone product line within the Omega family, and it remains today as one of the brand's most respected names for producing many unique designs.

While Cartier has been synonymous with luxury jewelry and watches since the brand's inception in 1847, the Maison is best known for their own creations. However, much like Tiffany & Co. and other jewelers, Cartier also retailed other luxury watch brands such as Rolex, Patek Philippe, and even Omega. With the Cartier name signed directly on the dial, much like Tiffany & Co., but even more so, these specially signed dials are incredibly rare and sought after within the collector community, with only a handful surfacing every few years.
