History The Genève collection was originally introduced by Omega in the 1950s to designate their highest-tier watches, produced at their Geneva workshops to exacting standards. By the late 1960s, the Genève line had evolved into a versatile and expansive collection of elegant, everyday timepieces. These watches utilized the same robust and precise movements found in the Seamaster and Constellation ranges but were presented in more understated, classic cases. The manual-winding caliber 613 is highly respected among collectors for its durability and precision, representing a wonderful era of mechanical watchmaking.
