Omega Geneve, Ref. 511.0388, Cal. 485, Women’s Dress Watch

This Omega Geneve watch from 1970, reference 511.0388, keeps a clear two-hand layout, with slender baton hands on a yellow dial. The women's dress watch uses hand-wound caliber 485 within a 20 mm gold-plated case, with thin straight lugs and a polished bezel. Omega at 12 and Genève at 6 identify the dial, accompanied by brown leather and a tang buckle.

Yellow baton dial and two-hand display

Applied baton hour markers sit within a discreet peripheral minute track. The Omega wordmark at 12 and Genève script at 6 keep the layout identifiable without filling the dial with text.

Two slender baton hands extend across the yellow face. Their narrow geometry and contrast with the dial preserve the watch's restrained two-hand arrangement.

Polished plating and fine lugs

The gold-plated case measures 20 mm, with a polished bezel and thin, straight lugs. Its crisply finished, compact proportions keep the head discreet beneath a cuff.

A proportionate fluted crown at 3 provides grip for winding and setting. Its winding action is smooth. The brown leather strap has a traditional tang buckle, with its neutral tone continuing the warm case finish.

Compact hand-wound caliber 485

The manual-wind watch uses Omega caliber 485, a compact Swiss movement with slender architecture. It is fully serviced and currently performs to vintage standards. Winding through the crown supplies power for the two-hand time display.

The Geneve line emphasized clean design in Omega's mechanical range as quartz technology began to emerge. This watch from the early 1970s presents that approach through its spare dial, fine lugs and small gold-plated case, keeping the movement and exterior proportionate.

The watch is used and in excellent vintage condition, retaining its original watch head components with the brown leather strap fitted. It is fully serviced and fully operational, with a 12-month warranty. Worldwide shipping and careful packing are available.
