Description

This De Ville Prestige "Orbis" is characterised by a number of distinctive elements, making it a fine celebration of the critical eye care provided by Orbis International and its Flying Eye Hospital.

One way that OMEGA supports their vital work, is to provide a cuddly teddy bear for every young patient. That touch has been used as the inspiration for this timepiece.

The watch has a 39.5 mm stainless steel case and a sun-brushed and lacquered blue dial that features a subtle OMEGA teddy bear pattern. The teddy bear logo on the vertically brushed caseback has also been specially designed just for this collection.

The dial features polished-domed Roman numerals as well as a blue central seconds hand. There is a date window at 3 o'clock and the watch comes presented on a blue leather strap. Inside, it is equipped with OMEGA's Co-Axial Calibre 2500.

Part of each sale will go towards funding the work of Orbis.

Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is certainly the most conventional of watchmaking materials for outer craftsmanship, and offers beauty, strength and affordability. OMEGA uses 316L stainless steel. Known for its corrosion-resistance and high lustre after polishing, this material is often the ideal choice for watches in both daily-use and high-stress situations such as diving and adventure.

Sapphire Crystal

To really appreciate the finer details of a timepiece, OMEGA uses synthetic sapphire crystal with a highly scratch-resistant and anti-reflective treatment. Before the machining and finishing processes take place, the sapphire crystals are produced under the Verneuil process, also called flame fusion. It involves the melting of the raw substance using oxyhydrogen flame and the crystallisation of the melted droplets to form a cylinder. Graded 9 on the Mohs-hardness scale (graded 1-10), the resulting sapphire crystals are virtually scratch-proof and very hard, ensuring an unhindered vision at all times.

A new look for your watch

Your watch and strap should go together perfectly, but that doesn't mean you can't experiment with different combinations. Why not mix things up and see what happens? You may discover a look that's as individual as you are.
