Condition

This is a stunning stainless steel Omega Geneve which is in excellent condition for its age showing signs of light wear. Overall this is a superb example of a vintage Omega as can be seen by the pictures. Mechanically, the watch is keeping excellent time. Sadly, the push down date change function on this piece tends to get stuck. Although, you can sometimes get it going, it’s best to change the date by moving the hands forwards. If this is a watch that you’ll wear regularly, this won’t be an annoyance at all. 

Dial - The sunburst dial is in excellent condition showing a few very light marks which are extremely hard to see even at close inspection. They are too minor for the camera to pick up. 

Case - The case is in great condition for its age showing a few some light scratching and a couple of scuffs.

Crown - The crown is original, Omega stamped and fully functional. To change the time, the crown is pulled out to its first an only position and rotated anti-clockwise to advance the hands. 

Movement - The movement is in extremely clean condition and looks almost new. The watch is running perfectly and keeping time within specification. 

Case back - The case back is original and in good condition showing a few tool marks. 

Strap - The strap is aftermarket however it is of very high quality and had a luxurious feel on wrist. 

Crystal - The acrylic crystal is in great condition showing few and light scratches which are very difficult to see with the naked eye. 

For a watch if this age, this piece is in spectacular order and is ready to wear!
