The silver dial is framed by a gold minute track with four small pin markers, spare and architectural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes with its red Omega box and its completed International Guarantee. The guarantee names the retailer as Highpoint Jewellers, Shop 8 Highpoint, Kotze Street, Hillbrow, South Africa, records Mr Boshoff as the purchaser, gives the metal reference as 1374-380 and the movement number as 1387, and records the sale on 6\/12\/1984.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe caseback settles it. It is stamped 1387, the same movement number written on the guarantee, and engraved GRADUATION 1984 around the De Ville Quartz medallion. A named buyer, a named Johannesburg jeweller, a sale in December 1984, a graduation gift, and the numbers still agree with each other forty years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Omega De Ville Design quartz\u003cbr\u003e• Steel rectangular case with integrated ribbed bracelet\u003cbr\u003e• Silver dial with gold minute track\u003cbr\u003e• Complete with red Omega box and guarantee\u003cbr\u003e• Guarantee movement number 1387 matches the caseback stamp\u003cbr\u003e• Caseback engraved GRADUATION 1984\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Brand: Omega\u003cbr\u003e• Metal Reference: 1374-380, as written on the guarantee\u003cbr\u003e• Movement Number: 1387, written on the guarantee and stamped on the caseback\u003cbr\u003e• Case: Rectangular, stainless steel, integrated bracelet\u003cbr\u003e• Dial: Silver with gold minute track and four pin markers\u003cbr\u003e• Movement: Quartz\u003cbr\u003e• Caseback Marking: De Ville Quartz medallion, stamped 1387\u003cbr\u003e• Caseback Engraving: GRADUATION 1984\u003cbr\u003e• Bracelet: Steel, integrated, fine longitudinal ribbing\u003cbr\u003e• Accessories: Red Omega presentation box and completed International Guarantee\u003cbr\u003e• Guarantee Record: Highpoint Jewellers, Shop 8 Highpoint, Kotze Street, Hillbrow, South Africa.

They were sold worldwide through authorised jewellers with a stamped International Guarantee, and in almost every case the guarantee is long gone. A surviving set where the movement number on the card still matches the number stamped in the caseback is genuinely uncommon, and here it comes with an occasion attached as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"center\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003chr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" align=\"center\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eOffered by ReWrist.
