Genéve Silver Dial Date

Omega Genève Automatic Silver Dial Date – understated classic from 1974

The Omega Genève Ref. 166.0168 dates from 1974 and presents itself in a restrained form, with a silver dial, date display and a 36 mm steel case. The automatic movement, Omega calibre 1012, has been cleaned, oiled and regulated. The watch comes with a new leather strap.

Simple design, neatly refurbished

The Genève line is one of Omega's everyday, unassuming model families. Here too, the silver dial defines the character: it looks calm and classic, without embellishment, and includes the date as a practical addition. At 36 millimetres in diameter, the steel case wears the way is typical for watches of this period, more discreet than prominent.

The acrylic crystal is not the original crystal, but it has been polished. The watch has also been professionally cleaned and checked. The movement runs with a rate deviation of +6 seconds per day at an amplitude of 242°, and the power reserve is 42 hours. The strap measures 23.5 cm in length.
