Omega Geneve

[Jon]

Just thougt I could post one of mine here, an Omega Geneve. I have been looking a while to find this black dialed Geneve, and was very happy when I found it

It is all original, and has never been polished. I have only been able to find one other black first generation Geneve on the web so far, so I think it is rather uncommon. It's from 1955, and with a cal 266
Here it is together with my other Geneve, also from 1955

Thanks. And like most 30mm movements from Omega they does still work very well after 50 years.

Cheers Jon
