Pre‑Owned Omega Genève 36mm Ref. 166.0169 (1972)
The Omega Genève Ref. 166.0169 is a classic expression of early‑1970s Swiss watch design, combining bold proportions with dependable automatic engineering. The Genève line was created to offer robust, stylish timepieces with broad appeal, and today these models are increasingly appreciated for their honest design and everyday versatility.
This 1972 example is presented in good condition and is supplied with its original box, a welcome addition for a watch of this era. The watch features a warm gold brushed dial paired with applied gold baton hour markers, delivering a cohesive and distinctly 1970s aesthetic. The 36mm gold‑plated case offers excellent wrist presence while remaining comfortably wearable, making it well suited to both casual and smart settings.
Powering the watch is the Omega Calibre 1022 automatic movement, featuring both day and date complications. Known for its reliability and practicality, this calibre reflects Omega’s focus on producing robust movements for everyday use during the period. The watch is fitted to a leather strap with pin buckle, maintaining its classic and understated presentation.
