Vintage Omega Genève TV 162.0042 (1973)
This Vintage Omega watch from the renowned Genève collection, produced in 1973, is a perfect embodiment of the bold stylistic spirit of the 1970s. With its case in the carrée shape with softened corners, often nicknamed “TV screen”, it offers a distinctive and highly elegant presence on the wrist, enhanced by its gold-plated finish.
The gold dial with a sunray finish beautifully captures the light, contrasting with the applied indexes and the black-outlined hands that ensure excellent readability. The date window located at 3 o’clock adds a touch of everyday practicality to this pre-owned luxury watch, perfect for enthusiasts of retro design with geometric lines.
Powered by a Swiss automatic movement from the manufacture (calibre 1481), this 32mm piece offers ideal proportions. It stands out as a superb men’s watch with a confidently worn vintage “dress watch” style, while also being perfectly suited as a women’s watch with character. Comes with its original crown and its Crystal acrylic—an enduring timeless classic.
Why we selected this piece?
- For its “TV Screen” shape: A softened square case typical of the 1970s, distinguished by the elegance of classic round models.
- For its automatic calibre 1481: A robust mechanical movement with a date function, reflecting Omega’s historic watchmaking excellence.
- For its sunray dial: A luminous golden tone and black detailing deliver perfectly mastered vintage aesthetics.
