Condition

This is a beautiful vintage Omega Geneve that features a near mint silver sunburst dial and a fully functioning date complication. It houses an automatic 565 movement and is keeping great time. The stainless steel case on this example is superb and even the case back has all of its brushwork showing really well despite its many decades of use. A really lovely example.

Dial - The dial on this piece is nearly flawless. Its sunburst effect dances beautifully in the sun. We can't find any marks even under magnification!

Case - The stainless steel case is in exceptional condition. There are some light scratches and marks which don’t impact the overall look of this watch on your wrist.

Crown - This piece has its original signed crown which changes the date perfectly. To change the time, the crown is pulled out to its first position and rotated. To change the date, the crown is pulled out to the second position and the date will flick over. 

Movement - The automatic movement is keeping great time. Cosmetically, the movement is in excellent condition. 

Case back - The case back is in excellent condition for its age. It is showing a few light scratches from tools being used on the case back over the years, but all of the original brushwork still shows clearly.

Strap - The watch sits on an aftermarket strap and which is in brand new condition. 

Crystal - The crystal does have a couple of extremely small scratches. These are barely noticeable even at close inspection, and don’t impact on the overall look of this piece.
