Genéve Silver Dial

Omega Genève Automatic Ref. 165.070 – Silver Dial from 1969

The Omega Genève Automatic from 1969 is an understated steel watch in a 34 mm case with a silver dial. It has been freshly serviced and comes with a new leather strap and a new crystal.

Understated design in a handy size

The Genève is one of Omega's more restrained models: a steel case 34 mm in diameter, a silver dial and an automatic movement, here the Omega calibre 565. This size reflects the period in which the watch was made and looks discreet and tidy on the wrist. The case has been professionally cleaned, checked and polished to a high shine, and the watch looks clean and neat.

The watch has also been attended to technically. The movement has been cleaned, oiled and regulated. Measurement shows a rate deviation of +3 seconds per day, the amplitude is 241° and the power reserve is 50 hours. The acrylic crystal is newly fitted and is not the original crystal. On the wrist, the watch sits on a new leather strap with a length of 23.5 cm.
