Frequently asked questions
Can I fit a standard strap on the Omega De Ville 422.18.35.50.10.001?
No. The bracelet is integrated into the case — there are no standard lugs where you can attach a strap. The architecture is proprietary. If you want to change it, I build one bespoke directly on your watch at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>.
How does bespoke strap making work for this De Ville?
I work by appointment only at <a href="/pages/casati-booking">Casati Milano</a>. I take measurements from the exact geometry of your case and the proprietary attachment, then I build the strap calibrating it millimetre by millimetre. It's bespoke micro-engineering — no templates, everything by hand.
Which leather would you recommend for the De Ville?
Mississippi alligator. This watch has an elegant but decisive character, urban in spirit — and alligator keeps that severity without becoming cold. It ages with a patina that tells time, exactly as a dress watch born in the 1960s deserves.
How long does a well-made strap last?
With daily wear and respectful care, 5-7 years. Good leather doesn't die — it changes. If you look after it, avoid trapped sweat and let it dry, you'll see it develop character. When the time comes, I know how to restore the leather or make a replacement.
Why was the De Ville designed as a dress watch, not a sports watch?
Omega made a deliberate choice: the Seamaster was born for water, the De Ville for the city. It was intentional — open proportions, measured elegance, no aggression. That means the strap must breathe the same balance: simple, built well, with no theatricality.
