The Omega Geneva that arrived today is a ladies' model made in 1975.
The small size is typical of vintage Omega, which has a wide range of design variations, and is very appealing.
More than 90% of current models are battery-powered ladies' watches.
Furthermore, it is rare to see a case size smaller than 25mm.
However, when it comes to vintage watches, most are hand-wound or automatic mechanical watches.
The largest case sizes are around 30mm, with most being around 20mm to 25mm.
You can get the sense that it was a watch that required a lot of effort and time, something that would be unimaginable today.
The smaller the watch, the more work steps there are.
Nowadays, there aren't many small watches available due to cost considerations.
From molding the case to manufacturing each part, extremely detailed and precise work is required.
Furthermore, quartz watches are cheaper than mechanical watches,
Maintenance does not require as much work as a mechanical watch.
A mechanical watch is made up of tiny parts that move together inside this 20mm case.

These basic watches in near-unused condition are
The chances are so small that it's almost a miracle.
That's because the protective seal from when it was shipped was still there.
The straps and buckles from that time are still there,
You don't see this on vintage watches.
Most of the vintage watches are second-hand and used.
Although each condition is different,
How amazing it is to find such a good vintage item in such good condition.
I want you to understand that this is more wonderful than words can convey.
This watch was found in a state where it had likely been stored for 50 years.
Now it has had the opportunity to see the light of day.
This may also be a sign of fate.
Things with this kind of history can still be found today.
The unique charm of vintage items is the opportunity to discover new items that you can't find with new products.
Why not take this opportunity to become the first owner?
