The positioning was more affordable, but the movements remained those of the house, with the same manufacturing rigor. That is what makes it today one of the most interesting entry points into vintage Omega.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat year is this Omega from?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom 1969. Unlike many vintage watches, this dating is not an estimate: the serial number engraved on the movement falls within the 29 million range, which Omega reference tables assign to that year. It is verifiable information, not an approximation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Omega caliber 613 reliable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, it is even one of its great strengths. The 613 is the date version of the famous caliber 601: a 17-jewel hand-wound mechanical movement, among Omega's most widely distributed movements at the end of the 1960s. This broad distribution has a fortunate consequence: spare parts remain available and any watchmaker knows how to service it. The one in this example has been serviced and is guaranteed for one year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you wind a hand-wound watch?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGently turn the crown clockwise, about twenty turns, until you feel resistance. Never force it beyond that point. Daily winding, at the same time of day, is enough to keep the watch running and ensures the best regularity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor what wrist does a 34mm case suit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a 34mm diameter but a Lug-to-lug of 40.5mm, this Omega wears larger than its size might suggest: its wide, faceted lugs elongate the silhouette. It can be worn on wrists from approximately 15 to 19cm in circumference — a guide, never a rule: everyone wears what they like. It is the classic format of the 1960s, now highly sought-after once again. The Lug width measures 18mm, which makes it easy to change the strap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Omega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54774683861329,"sku":"136.041 29229549","price":1417.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/8576\/2597\/files\/VD_07107.jpg?v=1788460200","url":"https:\/\/ateliervictor.co\/en\/products\/omega-geneve-watch-136-041-steel-silver-dial-1969","provider":"Atelier Victor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
