I am looking to buy my first Omega. Currently looking at 60s/70s Seamasters and Geneves. I came across this 166.037 and I am concerned that it is potentially a redial.

1. All the other examples I see of this reference are Seamasters.

2. I have never seen this dial in all my searches.

3. It seems too nice

So any help is appreciated!

It’s a less commonly seen, but legitimate dial variation. Some references such as this can be found in both Seamaster and Geneve guises.

Overall condition of the watch certainly supports a pristine dial, I believe!

A sympathetic movement service and fresh gasket would be my first move before wearing or winding.

Welcome, let us know how things workout. I think it is beautiful.

Thank y’all for the help @UncleBuck & @Davidt I ended up getting and put it on this Saffiano strap. Runs great after the service.
