Now available at auction from Second Vintage Presented here is a classic vintage Omega Genève, distinguished by its curved-edge square cushion case and exceptionally clean silver sunburst dial. This 1969 production model offers a compelling alternative to traditional round dress watches, combining strong geometry with refined, non-luminous dial aesthetics and the highly regarded in-house Caliber 565 automatic movement. Brand: Omega Model: Genève Reference Number: 162 010 Serial Number: 31470758 Movement: Automatic, Caliber 565, 24 jewels Dial: Silver sunburst finish with applied indices Case Size: 31 mm (excluding the crown) Case Material: Stainless steel Production Year: 1969 Condition: Excellent vintage condition.

It is adorned with applied indices featuring black inserts and an applied Omega logo, complemented by crisp printed text. In keeping with this specific design, the non-luminous dial notably lacks an outer minute track, creating a minimalist and elegant aesthetic. Very minor spotting is visible only under magnification. The stick hands share the black inserts of the indices and show clean finishing with minimal oxidation, displaying excellent preservation overall. Case and Crystal The stainless steel square cushion case, often referred to as a curved-edge tank design, features a brushed front face with polished sides and a press-fit caseback. The case displays honest vintage wear, with light scratches consistent with its age, yet the edges remain relatively well-defined. The watch is fitted with an acrylic crystal that shows light surface scratches visible at certain angles, though it maintains clear visibility of the dial beneath. A signed Omega crown with a knurled edge and a clear logo in relief completes the case profile. Movement Inside beats the Omega Caliber 565 automatic movement, a 24-jewel mechanism equipped with a practical quick-set date function operated by repeatedly pulling the crown out. The movement presents beautifully with its signature clean copper-colored plating. The rotor is present and intact, and there are no obvious signs of corrosion or heavy wear. Crisp engravings display the serial number 31470758 alongside the Omega Watch Co Swiss nomenclature. The timegrapher records +9+12s/day. Exhibiting remarkable accuracy and consistency, performing brilliantly for a vintage timepiece. Strap The watch is paired with a black leather strap featuring white contrast stitching.
