The Omega Genève Reference 166.041 with a silver dial and Caliber 565 automatic movement, is a highly regarded, classic vintage timepiece produced primarily from 1968 through the early 1970s. Positioned by Omega during that era as an entrypoint into refined luxury, its robust build and elegant proportions have made it an enduring favorite among vintage watch collectors.
The Movement (Caliber 565): The watch is powered by Omega's in-house, 24-jewel automatic Caliber 565. Widely considered one of the finest 500-series movements Omega ever manufactured, it is celebrated by enthusiasts on Omega Forums for its exceptional reliability, accuracy, and longevity.
Quickset Date Mechanism: The Caliber 565 features a distinctive, user-friendly pull-push quickset date function. To advance the date seamlessly, you pull the crown all the way out to its second position, which snaps the date forward by one day, and then push it back in.
Case and Dimensions: It features a modest 34mm case diameter (excluding the crown) with a lug-to-lug length of 40mm and an 18mm lug width. The Tonneau-style case has a subtle sporty yet dressy profile, characterized by its satin-finished (brushed) top surface and polished case sides. While most commonly found in stainless steel, gold-plated options were also produced.
Dial & Crystal: The silver dial typically displays a dynamic sunburst or satin finish, paired with applied baton hour markers (frequently containing black onyx inserts) and matching hands. Protecting the face is a signature Omega acrylic plexiglass crystal.
