A striking 1972 Swiss-made Omega Geneve automatic, designed by the iconic designer Willy Loertscher. While Omega is famous for traditional tool watches, this reference captures the peak of the brand's 1970s avant-garde experimentation with its retro television-shaped case geometry.
This classic model features a flawless gold sunburst satin dial with uniquely recessed hour markers, powered by the excellent in-house Omega caliber 1481 automatic movement. It comes supplied on its original Omega gold-plated bracelet with a signed crown. A beautiful and distinctive piece of design history, perfect for collectors who appreciate funky 70s aesthetics backed by a renowned designer.
In short, a beautiful 1972 Omega Geneve combining a rare Willy Loertscher TV screen design with a reliable in-house automatic caliber. A pure statement piece of 1970s Swiss style.
