Omega Geneve

Up for sale is a beautiful, classic Omega Genève Reference 131.019 from the late 1960s. This is a refined, hand-wound dress watch that carries one of Omega’s most reliable vintage movements. What makes this particular example stand out is the inclusion of the highly sought-after "Beads of Rice" bracelet, which is a rare find for this model. Specifications Model: Omega Genève Reference: 131.019 Movement: Manual Wind Calibre 601 (17 Jewels) Case Size: 34mm (excluding crown) Case Material: Gold-plated (20 microns) with a Stainless Steel back Bracelet: Original Omega gold-tone "Beads of Rice" style Dial: Stunning Silver Sunburst with applied gold markers Condition Report Dial: The dial is in excellent vintage condition. It has a clean sunburst finish with no significant "freckling" or oxidation—very rare for a watch of this age. Case: The gold plating is strong and bright. There is very minor surface wear consistent with age, but no heavy "brassing" or deep scratches. Movement: The Calibre 601 movement is winding smoothly and keeping good time. Crystal: Clear and polished, showing the dial off perfectly. Bracelet: The bracelet is comfortable and holds its shape well. The clasp snaps shut securely. Why This Watch? The Ref. 131.019 is a staple for vintage collectors, but finding one with a dial this clean and a matching "Beads of Rice" bracelet is getting harder every year. It wears larger than its 34mm size thanks to the slim bezel and long lugs, making it a perfect daily wearer or dress piece.
