Funny isn't it?
I love my Rolex timepieces modern but I prefer my Omega's vintage..:think:

Just look at those disigns from decades ago...:-!

For example one of my vintage Omega Geneve's..

Almost art if you ask me..:-p

What I also love about these oldies are the manufacterer movements inside, simple and tough movements

You can't go wrong with a vintage Omega IMHO..

Yes, it was Jon who pointed me in the direction of these vintage beauties..:-!
I still drool over his black Geneve, man what a beauty..

They must be very rare because the only one I ever saw was Jon's

I've always wanted one of those old Geneves. Today, an opportunity presented itself and I came home with this...

Very classy, G. I always love seeing that one.

Can you tell us a little more about it? Year? Movement?

Thanks Eric..:-!

Both my Geneves carry the 491 caliber.
They where born just before 1960..;-)

I bought them without knowing the service history and both of them kept excellent time..:-!
The first one I bought (picture above) just had a complete service, the second one is now at my watchmaker for the same treatment..;-)

Here a old picture of the two of them together before the service..
