Remarks
This Omega Genève offers a striking integrated aesthetic in superb condition. With its pristine dial, fully signed components, and capable high-beat automatic movement, it represents a highly functional and attractive example of 1970s mechanical watchmaking.

History
The Genève name was originally introduced as a tribute to the Genevan Observatory, where Omega's early 30mm calibers set numerous precision records. By the early 1970s, the Genève line had evolved to feature the prominent, geometric case shapes of the decade, often paired with integrated stainless steel bracelets. This specific model utilizes the Omega Caliber 1022, an advanced automatic high-beat movement operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, which provided a 40-hour power reserve and a practical day-date function to meet the demands of the modern wearer.
