Omega Genève
Description
There’s something about a seventies Omega in gold that always gets my attention. This gold-plated Genève ref. 166.0173 / 366.0832 combines that unmistakable look with an automatic calibre 1012 and a comfortable integrated three-link bracelet.
This example stand out due to its preservation: the gold plating shows no visible wear-through or flaking, unlike many other examples on the market currently. Combined with the spotless vertically brushed gold-tone dial, it delivers the full seventies look in exceptionally well-preserved condition.
I’ll admit, an all-gold look isn’t for everyone - but I love it, and that’s exactly why this watch is here at Yellow Seconds. Sporty and classic at the same time, it’s the kind of vintage Omega I’m excited to offer.

Gold plating is full intact. Spotless dial. Wear is most visible on the crown and clasp. Furthermore there is a tiny scratch/mark on the upper left lug of the watch, without impacting the gold plating.
The photographs form part of the description, so please review them carefully. Keep in mind that close-up images can make marks and signs of wear appear more noticeable than they are to the naked eye.
