Discover the Omega Genève Blue – Ref. 166.0163 (1971) at OmniWatch & Co
Available at OmniWatch & Co, this Omega Vintage Genève 166.0163 is a stunning example of 1970s Swiss watchmaking elegance. Produced in 1971, this vintage timepiece stands out thanks to its deep blue dial, which has developed a subtle patina around the indexes and hands — a detail that adds timeless character and vintage charm.
The 34 mm stainless steel case is classic and understated, offering a balanced profile that suits both men and women. It is topped with an original Omega-signed plexiglass crystal, maintaining the watch’s period-correct authenticity. The Omega-signed crown remains intact, reflecting the watch’s well-preserved condition.
This piece is paired with a French-made navy calfskin strap from Jean Rousseau, a luxury leather craftsman. The tone of the strap complements the dial perfectly, giving the watch a cohesive and refined appearance while offering optimal comfort for daily wear.
Inside, the watch is powered by the Omega Caliber 1012, an automatic mechanical movement known for its precision, reliability, and durability. Introduced in the early 70s, this movement features a quickset date function and a bi-directional winding mechanism, making it both functional and collectible.
With its original components, subtle patina, and tasteful pairing of materials, this Omega Genève offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of vintage Omega history. Whether you are a seasoned collector or a first-time buyer looking for a reliable and elegant dress watch, this reference delivers outstanding value and style.
