Omega Seamaster De Ville Automatic Ref. 166.020 – A Rosé Gold French-Made Classic from 1964

A timeless expression of post-war refinement and horological ingenuity, the Omega Seamaster De Ville Ref. 166.020 in 18K Rosé Gold is a remarkable representation of 1960s-era craftsmanship. French-case Seamasters such as this one stand out not just for their technical elegance, but for the unique historical footnote they carry—evading Swiss gold export taxes through local casing. The result? A heavier, rosier, and utterly distinctive Omega.

Distinctive French Craftsmanship in Solid Rosé Gold

This 34mm Seamaster De Ville is cased in a solid 18K Rosé gold monobloc (monobloque) French-made case—a hallmark of a fascinating tax workaround from the 1960s. French hallmarks and craftsmanship imbue this piece with a rare richness and heft, enhanced by sharp, untouched lines and its original Omega factory finish.

Its clean and balanced silver sunburst dial, signed by Omega, remains in pristine, untouched condition—free of any restoration—with applied hour markers and classic dauphine hands, all under a domed plexiglass crystal that exudes vintage charm.

Calibre 562 – A Reliable Beating Heart

Inside the case, the revered Omega Calibre 562 automatic movement beats with precision and confidence. Fully serviced by our professional watchmaker and covered by a one-year mechanical warranty, the movement reflects Omega's dedication to reliability and smooth performance in the 1960s.

Paired with a handmade Belgian leather strap, this Seamaster De Ville offers a tactile sense of period-correct luxury. The Omega-signed crown ensures that all components remain authentic and aligned with factory specifications.

Period-Correct Detailing and Pristine Preservation

Flip the case, and the iconic Omega Seahorse emblem graces the caseback—deep, sharp, and impressively preserved. Every aspect of this watch has been maintained with care, offering collectors a rare opportunity to own a French-cased Omega in superb condition. With a serial number 21879234, this watch dates to circa 1964, a time when Omega was pushing boundaries in both global production and design fidelity.

Poor quality control - maybe outlet store leftovers
Size: 11.5, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
The two shoes were not the same size. They were both labeled 11 1/2 but one shoe was larger than the other and the fit was poor. I returned the first pair and ordered a replacement. This time the shoes were close to the same size but too loose and the left one has sewing issues. I've bought Johnston & Murphy for years because of the quality. These were to replace an existing pair of burgundy penny loafers that have finally worn out (even after several heal/sole replacements). That is the expected quality. I suspect Nashville Shoe Warehouse may be handling shoes that didn't measure up for the quality; more like an outlet mall than getting the J&M quality I've come to expect. Update: went to Johnston & Murphy site to buy "direct" from the manufacturer. There were several recent reviews where the shoes were long and didn't fit properly. Genesco - please step up the manufacture / crafting of these classic shoes to the level of quality they used to have.

Really nice shoes
Size: 9, Color: Black Polished Full Grain
My husband enjoys wearing these shoes. Very classy looking. They fit well. They arrived quickly. He liked them so much he ordered another pair in a different color which have worked out just as well.

Way too narrow
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
I ordered a wide in this shoe, but it was still way too narrow. I had to return them. Otherwise, it looked like a nice quality shoe.

I usually wear 11.5's, but I buy 1/2 size smaller to accommodate for stretch. Leather relaxes.
Size: 11, Color: Burgundy Polished Full Grain
5 STARS: These shoes are awesome. I keep coming back for more. I have major foot problems, have tried all kinds of shoes, orthotics, and inserts... but believe it or not, these shoes work better than any of that stuff. I wear them daily. I buy lots of them, for home, for church, and I'm getting my first pair of J&M boots today, for winters in Indiana... Brrrr

Sleek, upscale and supremely comfortable
Size: 9, Color: Cognac
I did not know that Marc Joseph makes hands free slip ins. I own four pair of Skechers, and I thought they were the only game in town. I decided that I wanted a pair of business casual pair of wingtips. I already own two pair of Skechers Mark Nason wingtips in blue and black nubuck, so I bought a pair of their cognac colored. Perfectly fine shoes, but when they arrived, I didn't like the color, so the search was on! I found these cognac-colored Mark Joseph's and hands down, they fit the bill for what I was looking for! I actually bought two more pair of Skechers in the brown family in the same oxford, elastic lace style: One pair of another style of their Mark Nason line and one pair of their Garza line. So now I am comparing three pair of Skechers to the Marc Joseph's. Obsessive, I know :). Luckily, I have a Skechers store near me for easy returns. The look I was going for is a sleek, business casual that I could dress up or down. Three things that I love about the Marc Joseph's are the beautiful cognac finish: the white yet lower profile soles and the more formal, narrower toe style. The MJ's nailed it with the color. They have a slightly darker, more lustrous and glossier look than the others. The color alone looks classier and pairs well with black pants which I wear for work almost every day. The white soles are exactly what I was looking for. The visible rise is probably about a third of the thickness of the others and are a much more subtle, classier look. They offset the cognac color nicely but are not that in your face, sneaker looking, thick white sole. When I was comparing them to the others right out of the box, I thought they would be too narrow and tight because they looked sleeker and narrower than the others. But they fit perfectly and were very comfortable right out of the box. Upon closer inspection and comparison, I realized the narrower, sleeker look is because the eyelets for the elastic shoelaces are closer together that give the illusion that the shoe is narrower. They compensate for what might create a tighter fit across the top of your foot with two stretchy "gores" they are called on either side of the upper part. The "slits" are nicely finished, and you can't see the stretchy part and add a nice design touch to the shoe. But between them and the elastic shoelaces, they must stretch just enough to make them extremely comfortable across the top. So, if you have a high instep/arch, they should accommodate it nicely. Last but not least, they are very comfortable shoes. I wear a size 8 1/2 to 9 and my foot is slightly on the wide side. I bought the size 9's and they fit perfectly. If you are between sizes or have wider feet, you may want to size up a half size. Because the Skechers have much thicker soles, they might be slightly more cushioned, but the MJ's are cushioned more than enough for my purposes and very comfortable. Plus, they actually just feel better on my feet. I can't speak to how durable they will be as I just got them, but so far, so good. So, there you have it. I rely on other people's reviews a lot when buying online, and especially for shoes. I know it's always a crap shoot, particularly when buying shoes online, so I hope this review helps. Everybody's feet are different, but I highly recommend these.
