History The Omega Genève line was introduced in the 1950s to represent the brand's elegant, reliable, and accessible dress watches, eventually becoming one of Omega's most successful collections by the 1970s. During this era, watch design underwent a dramatic shift, moving away from traditional round cases toward bold, geometric shapes. The TV-shaped case became a defining aesthetic of the decade, reflecting a futuristic approach to industrial design. Today, these distinctively shaped models are appreciated by collectors for their unapologetic 1970s character and robust mechanical construction. / Second Vintage SKU: OME-AGX-0022
