Omega Geneve, Ref. 131.019, Cal. 601, Men’s Manual Wind, 1969
Warm spotting and patina give this 1969 Omega Genève, reference 131.019, its individual character. The beige-to-champagne dial carries an applied Omega emblem, elongated baton markers and a T Swiss Made T signature. A compact gold-plated case surrounds the three-hand display, powered by the Swiss hand-wound caliber 601.
Applied emblem and aged beige dial
Light spotting, small marks and age-related patina remain visible across the dial. The applied emblem and printed Omega name sit below 12, with Genève in the lower-right area. Slim baton markers have dark accents, and the outer minute track remains clear. T Swiss Made T at the lower edge identifies the period luminous dial configuration.
The narrow baton hour and minute hands also have dark central details, separating them from the pale background. A thin central seconds hand completes the uncluttered display. The emphasis is on the applied furniture and aged surface rather than additional decoration.
Compact case and replacement leather
The round case of this vintage Omega watch measures 34 mm across and 39 mm lug to lug, with slim straight lugs and an 18 mm strap fit. Fine scratches, small marks and age-related plating wear are visible. The acrylic crystal has surface marks and reflections but leaves the dial readily visible.
A new adjustable black leather strap contrasts with the warm dial and gold-plated finish. It is a replacement accessory, separate from the original watch-head components.
The Omega 601 is a Swiss Made manual-wind caliber powering hours, minutes and central seconds. This watch has been fully serviced and is fully operational. Its watch-head components are original. No box or papers are included, and it comes with a 12-month warranty. Vintage Watch Studio ships worldwide.
