Omega Admiralty Genève Ref. 166.038 Circa 1968

Introduced around 1968, this rare Admiralty edition of the Omega Genève line was conceived with water resistance and elegance at its core. The 35 mm stainless steel case, featuring extended lugs, prominent crown guards and a screw-down caseback engraved “Waterproof”, reflects Omega’s pursuit of technical reliability.

Inside beats the automatic Caliber 565, celebrated for its precision and refined construction. The matte light-grey dial, accented by a vivid orange seconds hand and bold hour markers, adds a contemporary energy that captures the adventurous spirit of the late 1960s.

This Genève Admiralty stands out for its uncommon reference and its harmonious balance of robust engineering and understated elegance.
