Brand heritage

Omega was founded in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds by Louis Brandt and has been based in Biel/Bienne, Switzerland since 1880. The De Ville line began in the 1960s as Omega's dress range, and the 162.025 cushion case with the automatic calibre 565 is one of its classic references of that era.
