1971 Omega Genève Automatic — Tonneau Sport-Luxury
This 1971 Omega Genève Automatic (Ref. 166.099) presents the tonneau-shaped stainless steel case and integrated bracelet silhouette typical of early 1970s sport-luxury design. The watch is fitted with an acrylic crystal and its original Omega stainless-steel bracelet (Ref. 366.822), preserving the era’s intended proportions. Power comes from the Caliber 1481, an automatic movement offering a quick-set date (The quick-set date function is not working, but this does not affect the standard date alignment. The date indicator can still be adjusted manually in the traditional way). For a modern enthusiast, this Genève balances period character and wearable dimensions, offering clear mechanical interest and authentic 1970s styling.
