Help me validate the watch and let me know if this is the 166.099 Geneve

wglomski · Jun 29, 2025

Hi.

I would like to buy a watch and hoping that it's the 166.099 Omega Geneve.

Would really appreciate if you could let me know if you think the watch is authentic and whether it's the 166.099 model.

Thanks!

It looks completely genuine to me.

The integrated bracelet limits coices to change to a strap though, but if you're a bracelet fan, no issues.

Amazing thank you.

Do you mean I will not be able to change the bracelet on it?

I was hoping to change to the 1189/191 if I happen to find one.

Do you think that will not be possible?

I think it may be possible if you can find an 1189/191.

Yeah had a quick look a doesn't seem to be any out there.

Any advice on where best to look for it?

EBay and patience.

You can always check whether Omega still sells it but it may cost more than the watch

Thanks. - Will try to ebay and patience then.

So you think just go into the store and ask directly for the bracelet?

And you're certain it's the 166.099 model?

No I’d do some research on the internet and try and find the actual part number or the bracelet. Then call them and see if it’s available to buy.
