WHY WE CURATED IT:
Genève models are prized by value-savvy collectors. Initially a flagship dress line in the 50s, Genèves took a backseat in the 60s as Speedmasters/Seamasters rose to fame. But Omega kept refining the collection, introducing affordability without compromising mechanical quality. By the 70s, they experimented with bolder shapes of the day, including this faceted square “TV” case in 20-micron gold plating and a dramatically boxed crystal. Calibres got updated with hacking seconds and quickset date complications. This one even comes with its original Omega box. And, it’s serviced and warrantied. Understated luxury and nostalgic form, yours at a steal!
