The Omega Geneva that arrived today is a watch that embodies the charm of vintage watches.
Small seconds, wedge-shaped indexes, dolphin hands, cross lines on the dial...
This is a rare model whose every detail will tickle your fancy.
The classic Geneva vintage model from Omega has been around since the 1950s and production ceased around the 1970s.
Among the various variations of Omega's entry-level models,
This watch was produced early on and is extremely rare.
The Omega logo is upright and Geneva is printed in cursive.
This alone gives off a vintage vibe,
The details, such as the wedge-shaped indexes, which are common in watches from the 1950s, give the watch a nice atmosphere.
The domed plastic windshield gives it a vintage feel.
It is packed with all the details that I personally like,
The design makes you say, "This is the very definition of a vintage watch!"
The movement is Omega's famous 30mm caliber series, equipped with Cal. 267 with small seconds function.
This is a movement with excellent precision and durability that is used in Omega's military watches as well as Seamaster watches.
The case that houses it is made of stainless steel and has a moderate volume with a diameter of 34 mm.
It's just the right size, not too big and not too small,
The dial is designed to be large, so the case size feels larger than it actually is.
This is in its original, unpolished condition, with the edges still intact.
The dial is in original condition but has aged overall.
It's been about 70 years since it was manufactured, so it's not brand new or beautiful,
I feel that the oil stains and discoloration also add to the vintage look of this watch.
A shiny, beautiful vintage watch is not bad either,
The condition of the item, even if it shows signs of damage due to aging, is also very appealing.
How the owner interprets this is up to them.
In addition to its original rarity, the damage gives you the sense that it has "gone through time."
This is a charm that can never be replicated through reproductions.
Personally, I think that vintage items look cool when they have some dirt on them.
What do you think?
