The Old Genéve´s.... lets see them :-)

There's one more branch of the Geneve family, also seemingly made in very small numbers and distinguished solely by what's on the dial. I have this one from 1968 which I like a lot, partly because of its rarity even though it's not even on most collectors' hit list, partly because of its condition and partly because I just think it has a certain something. Wrist shot and watchmaker photos from service last year.

Seems like the 135.041 also was found in the Seamaster line, but have never seen a Seamaster/Geneve

This is an unusual dial on a 136041 with a 613 movement.

Sorry if I come off as being a pedant (or worse), but this thread has morphed into generic Genève thread, rather than adhering to the OP's original title and post.

There was a clear distinction between later models and the early ones produced in the '50s, both in terms of quality and placement in Omega's model-line hierarchy. So, if possible, can members please at least confine their contributions to this particular thread to those watches that had the script "Genève" on the dial?

Thanks in advance.

Sorry. I had thought 48 years counted as old

Oops. Me bad

Perhaps you would have understood more clearly had you read the original post...

Other than me, that love the old Omega Genéve´s with cursive text

@Tony C. did Dennison make a 9ct version in 36mm?

I do not recall having seen one, but that doesn't mean that they don't exist!

Just to round off this little diversion if I may, mine as correctly assumed by @tdn-dk is a 135.041. There are quite a few Seamaster Geneves in earlier case refs but this seems to be a rare variant; however it is a correct one - a search for SM Geneve and 135.041 brings up one or two results, eg. this one currently for sale in Australia: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/232698379436?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2649.
