Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Originally introduced in the 1950s, the Geneve line was named in honour of Omegas success at the Geneva Observatory trials. By the 1970s, it represented a significant portion of Omegas production, offering elegant dress watches defined by clean lines and reliable mechanical movements.

Mid-century dress watches commonly feature stainless steel, gold-plated, or solid gold cases paired with acrylic crystals. Dials are often made of silvered or lacquered brass, completed with genuine leather or woven steel straps.

Authentic timepieces feature precise brand typography on the dial, a hallmarked movement engraved with a serial number, and matching reference numbers inside the case back. The Omega symbol is typically present on the crown, dial, and movement.

A minimalist 1970s wristwatch transitions seamlessly between formal tailoring and smart casual attire. The simple profile and dark strap complement charcoal suits, crisp white shirts, or contemporary knitwear.

Keep mechanical watches away from water, moisture, and strong magnetic fields. Professional servicing is recommended every three to five years to clean the movement, replace lubricants, and ensure accurate timekeeping.
