FAQs

Introduced in the mid-20th century, the Omega Geneve line was created to showcase precise, reliable dress watches that paid homage to Omegas successes at the Geneva Observatory trials.

During the 1960s, Omega crafted watch cases predominantly from stainless steel or gold plate, housing precision Swiss-made mechanical and automatic movements paired with acrylic crystals and leather straps.

Authentic pieces feature crisp logo printing, correct reference numbers stamped inside the case back, signed crowns, and high-grade in-house Swiss movements bearing serial numbers.

A classic stainless steel automatic watch with a leather strap bridges formal and casual wear effortlessly, complementing tailored suits, knitwear, or casual shirts.

Keep vintage timepieces away from water, extreme temperatures, and strong magnetic fields, and have the mechanical movement serviced by a qualified watchmaker every three to five years.
