Omikron 1970s — First impression - FHF 90-4

The Omikron FHF 90-4 delivers a perfect balance between understated elegance and 1970s design flair. Its bold red gradient dial immediately draws attention, transitioning from bright red in the center to a darker burgundy tone at the edge, creating visual depth and character. The polished chrome-plated cushion case keeps the profile compact at 36 mm, making it an excellent daily wearer or dress piece. This is a fully serviced Swiss-made watch, running reliably with its manual winding movement and ready for decades of precise timekeeping.

Omikron - Red Gradient Dial

The dial is the star of this watch — a rare red fumé finish with applied baton hour markers and luminous plots. The minute track is finely printed, ensuring excellent legibility. The date aperture at 3 o’clock with red date numerals adds a touch of sportiness, perfectly complementing the vibrant color scheme.

Omikron FHF 90-4 - Hands

Slim baton-style hands with luminous inserts match the hour markers and ensure legibility in low light. The central seconds hand is needle-thin and polished, sweeping smoothly over the dial.

Omikron FHF 90-4 - Cushion Chrome-Plated Case

The 36 mm chrome-plated case offers vintage charm and a distinct cushion shape that was iconic for the 1970s era. Its polished surfaces and slightly curved lugs make it wear elegantly on the wrist, while the 39 mm lug-to-lug measurement ensures comfort even for smaller wrists.

Omikron FHF 90-4 - Crown

The fluted crown at 3 o’clock allows for easy manual winding and time setting. Its size is proportional to the case, maintaining the sleek aesthetic.

Omikron Black Leather Strap

This example is paired with a black crocodile-pattern leather strap that enhances the watch’s dress appeal. The strap is supple and fastens with a tang buckle, making it comfortable for daily wear.

Manual Wind Movement — FHF 90-4 Caliber

Inside beats the Swiss-made FHF 90-4 manual wind caliber, a robust and historically significant movement known for its reliability and ease of maintenance. This 17-jewel movement with Incabloc shock protection is capable of precise timekeeping and has been fully serviced for this sale, ensuring excellent performance.
