OMEGA Genève Dynamic 1970s Automatic Ref. 166.079
Here we have the Omega Ref. 166.079, an exquisite vintage timepiece that captures the essence of classic 1970s watch design. This beautiful WRISTCLASSIC is presented in a solid 41mm steel case, offering a bold, substantial look on the wrist. Its condition is excellent, with sharp edges and only light signs of wear, and notably, it remains unpolished—a true testament to its preserved authenticity. The dial is stunning, featuring a gorgeous, even patina and an eye-catching red second hand that adds a vibrant pop of color. The lume is untouched, providing a vintage charm that’s difficult to find. The simple Omega logo, along with the minimalist indexes and hands, contribute to a clean, balanced aesthetic that speaks to Omega’s timeless design approach. Originality is key here, as the crown bears the Omega logo, and the watch is powered by the reliable Caliber 752 movement, which has been recently serviced to ensure it runs and keeps time accurately. Completing the look, this Omega comes fitted with its original Omega leather bracelet, enhancing its vintage appeal. This Omega Ref. 166.079 is a rare gem, combining the robust, chunky style of the 1970s with a beautifully preserved dial and unique design elements. It’s a true WRISTCLASSIC with ideal proportions, a timelessly sporty elegance, and unparalleled style. A splendid model both inside and out, sure to garner endless admiration.
OMEGA
Omega was founded in 1848 in La Chaux-de-Fonds by Louis Brandt. Out of this small watch manufacture grew a large company: In 1894, the famous 19-ligne pocket watch movement was developed and named ‘Omega’. Omega, as the final letter of the Greek alphabet, stands for the ultimate step in perfection and quality. In the 1930 the company entered into a collaboration with the S.S.I.H. (Société Suisse pour l’Industrie Horlogère). Out of this collaboration the Swatch Group developed. Today, Omega is the flagship of this prestigious and huge company. In 1932, Omega entered its partnership with the Olympics which continues till today. When in 1969 Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.
