    These were at one time, Omega's top of the line. I have attached (with permission) the sales ad from 18 months ago when this watch was first sold on the forum. It's dial has been cleaned and restored nicely and it has just had it's cal. 266 serviced.

    I have also attached the thread about the dial cleaning.

    So...pics tell the rest of the story, and as anyone who has purchased from me before will know, what you will receive will look better than the pics. My high-rez shots will amplify flaws so as to give the reader a "warts-and-all" picture which won't be seen when wearing.

    Dial: Lovely patina and successfully cleaned. The "Swiss Made" lettering at the bottom of the dial is intact but very faint. The rest of the lettering and markings are in very good shape as seen in the pics. Dial markers are excellent and cleaned by my watchmaker when he serviced the movement.

    Hands: Excellent with no oxidation

    Case: Full and with very good chamfers and angles. It may be unpolished, but I don't know these well enough to state that as a fact. It is however, quite sharp for a 60+ year old watch with oblique angles. Numerous micro dings and abrasions don't detract at all from it's appearance in the flesh.

    Case back: a few scratches as pictured

    Movement: very clean cal. 266 and just serviced

    Crown: original

    Crystal: probably replaced at some point as I don't see the Omega symbol. Small crack (or deep scratch) at 11:00

    Based on current pricing and recent service and dial restoration, I'm asking a reasonable (I think) $875.

    I accept paypal friends (or you pay fee) or bank transfer

    Parcelpro/Fedex to lower 48 is on me. Overseas will discuss with buyer.

    Thanks for the platform OF!

    Cheers

    Todd

    I really love those Genève models! If I may suggest... A wrist picture under "real" lighting would help put forward that lovely watch!

    GLWS!!
    Note to me: Behave!!!
