The ultimate understated vintage Omega, this Omega Geneve 166.0168 comes in a handsome stainless steel case with a beautifully finished silver satin dial and the dependable Cal.1012 automatic movement. Proportionally balanced with sharp case lines and a clean combination of brushed and polished surfaces, the 36mm case wears exceptionally well on the wrist. Paired with its original Omega-signed crown and domed acrylic crystal, this is a beautifully honest 1970s timepiece that offers plenty of vintage charm without being overly flashy — a true collectors piece for those who appreciate the more understated side of Omega.
In addition, this timepiece comes freshly serviced with all parts laid out by our professional watchmaker for all to see in the images above. Little to no other dealers do this and it’s a testament to full transparency here at Montre D’or. With the Cal.1012 inside running excellently as shown in the timegrapher reading above, just like it was when it left the factory over half a century ago.
