Our Take
For more than 170 years Omega has been at the forefront of exploration, whether to the moon or the depths of the ocean, they have been there. This great example of the classic 1969 Geneve model doesn’t disappoint, measuring 26mm in diameter and 30mm from lug to lug, petite so good for a smaller wrist. The stainless steel case is in good shape with only a few light scuffs here and there, the steel back screws in. The metallic blue dial is rather unique, with stick markers, and funky hands, all under an acrylic crystal, there is some ageing on the dial though as you can see. The crown is signed with the logo and winds up the movement. The watch is powered by a manual wind calibre 630 movement with 17 jewels and keeps good time. The serial number on the inside of the case is 535.014. The bracelet has been replaced with a Hirsch leather bracelet with steel buckle and will fit a wrist of about 6.7” or 17cm approximately. The watch comes without the original box and papers, but a gift box will be provided. Water resistance is not guaranteed so please do not use it near water.
