Omega Genève Automatic

Vintage Gold-Plated Wristwatch – Calibre 1012 (1973)
Box & Papers | Rare Full Set Set

A beautifully preserved example of a classic Omega Genève Automatic, factory-produced in 1973 and powered by the respected Omega calibre 1012 automatic movement.

This watch represents a period when Omega was producing refined, elegant dress watches with robust in-house movements — something no longer offered in today’s catalogue in this traditional form.
