Description from the seller

Omega Genève Automatic – Ref. 166.9163 – 14K Solid Gold – Cal. 1012 – Complete with original box – 1971

Offered is an elegant and superbly preserved Omega Genève Automatic, reference 166.9163, manufactured in solid 14-karat yellow gold. Based on the serial number, this watch dates to 1971 and is powered by the reliable and beloved Omega Caliber 1012 automatic movement. This reference belongs to the solid-gold Genève models from the 1970s and is distinguished by its classic proportions, high-quality finishing, and timeless appearance.

The solid 14-karat gold case contains approximately 17 grams of gold and is in excellent condition. The original sharp case lines and beveled edges are well preserved, and the case shows only minimal signs of wear. The screwed case back bears the reference number, the 14K/0.585 gold mark, and the Omega Fab. Suisse brand on the inside. Total weight 42 grams.

The Omega Caliber 1012 automatic movement has been recently fully serviced (October 10, 2024). The movement is clean, runs strongly, keeps accurate time, and the quickset date function works correctly.

The original silver-tone sunburst dial is in an exceptionally beautiful, unrestored condition. The applied gold hour markers, original gold hands, and the original Omega crown are all excellently preserved. The clear acrylic crystal provides the characteristic warm look valued by vintage Omega enthusiasts.

The watch comes with:

Original Omega box
