·Help Identifying This Vintage Omega Genève
Hello, watch fans!
I’m hoping to get your expertise in identifying this watch, which I’m currently having serviced.
The closest reference I’ve been able to find is the Omega Genève 14724, but I haven’t been able to find another example with the 6, 9, and 12 Arabic numerals like this one. I also haven’t found any examples with a red-tipped seconds hand, which makes me wonder whether the hand is original or may have been replaced at some point.
I’d really appreciate your thoughts on:
- The correct reference/model identification
- Whether this particular dial configuration is known for the 14724
- Whether you’ve ever seen an Omega with this red-tipped seconds hand, and whether it could be original
The watch has a lot of sentimental value to me, so I’d like to restore it as close to its original configuration as possible rather than replacing parts based on assumptions.
Any information, period catalogs, photographs, or examples you can share would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance for your help!
