1972 Omega Geneve (Ref. 162.0042) Cal. 1481

The world of vintage Omega is vast. It's filled with interesting and unique references, to a degree unlike almost any other manufacturer. This is true whether one wishes to get weird with a racing, dress, diving, or any other category of watch. Omega has them all. The 1970s especially were a time when the watch world as a whole actively tested the limits of design, of what a watch could be and how it could look, not just what it could do.

CASE & BRACELET

The mix of curvature within the rigidity of the square creates a totally unique look that finds it just as easy to navigate casual wear as it does dressing up. The watch comes supplied on an Omega 1037 'beads of rice' bracelet with 609 end pieces that retains 20 links that show light stretch and will fit up to a 7-inch wrist. The watch is powered by the caliber 1481, a self-winding movement developed between Omega and Tissot in the early 70s.
