The Collector’s Choice This is not your standard vintage Omega. The Reference 131.5016 is a connoisseur’s dress watch, defined by its ultra-slim profile and a rare vertical linen-textured dial. While many Genève models were gold-plated, this example is crafted from solid 9ct yellow gold, offering both timeless style and significant intrinsic value. Powered by the Calibre 621, a dedicated ultra-thin manual wind movement, this timepiece represents a period where Omega focused on engineering elegance and precision without the bulk. Highlights & Condition • Case: Solid 9ct Yellow Gold. Beautifully preserved with sharp lugs and deep hallmarks. • Dial: Spectacular champagne "Linen" texture. The vertical brushing creates a dynamic play of light that photos rarely capture. • Movement: Calibre 621 Manual Wind. Known for its slimness and reliability. The watch is running perfectly, keeping excellent time. • Intrinsic Value: Total weight of 38g, with approximately 10g of solid 9ct gold. At current 2026 rates (~£42/g), the gold alone represents a scrap value of roughly £420, providing a strong underlying asset value for the winning bidder. • Crown: Original Omega-signed crown, operating smoothly. Condition Report • Case: Sharp lugs and clear hallmarks on the inner case back. • Dial/Hands: Original condition, very high preservation. • Crystal: Clear with no major scratches. • Movement: Wound and tested; functioning exactly as it should.
